Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. Matthew 11:29
As women we often tend to do too much. As military wives we do too much because so much needs to be done. We try to be all to everybody. When you feel burdened and weary, you cannot be a blessing to others. Take care of yourself, eat right, sleep, rest, exercise, do something fun! Take care of your family. Do not cook a fancy meal for another family and take yours to the burger drive-through.
Always be there for your husband. He takes priority over your ministry.
You should not feel stressed or burdened when serving God. His yoke is easy and His burden light. If you feel overwhelmed you might not be doing what God called you to do. More than likely you are doing what you are called to do and what you think other people want you to do. This is your key to stop, pray, talk to a friend and start leading from His rest.
