You Can't Do It All By Yourself...

Some of us are in a place where we need some help! In preparation for a class last evening, I was in Exodus 18 and meditating on the instruction Jethro gave to Moses. There were a few things that stuck out to me during the class as the students read the Scripture aloud that I'm compelled to share here...just briefly -

Exodus 18:18 - Both you and these people who are with you will surely wear yourselves out. for this thing is too much for you; you are not able to perform it by yourself.

Exodus 18:22 - (latter part of the verse) So it will be easier for you, for they will bear the burden with you.

You don't have to do it all by yourself. Tap into the leader in you and delegate some responsibility. Ditch the "no one else can do it right"/"they don't do it the way I do it"/"I just need to do it by myself to make sure it gets done" attitudes, seek Godly and wise counsel, listen, and get yourself out of the way! What's happening is you're bringing a lot of unnecessary stress and worry on YOU because you don't receive HELP!

It may not be the 'norm' or what you're 'used to'; however, it's all a part of the process.
