Some days, I want to bury my face in my pillow and not get out of bed. \u201cLife is too hard,\u201d I say. \u201cI can\u2019t do it.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

I feel as if I\u2019m drowning in a tsunami of needs. Family members with health concerns. Personnel shortages at work. Ministry needs. Volunteer opportunities. I want to do good things for good people, but most days, there just isn\u2019t enough of me to go around. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I\u2019m overwhelmed.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

This realization, I\u2019ve discovered, is the first step toward a solution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you struggle with feeling overwhelmed, consider these three truths, found in (of all places) the book of Numbers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3 Truths When You Feel Overwhelmed<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1. Take heart. Even godly people feel overwhelmed.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Consider Moses. Tasked with leading more than a million Israelites through the wilderness to the Promised Land, Moses was the CEO, CFO, and CMO of the greatest mobilization project in history. It\u2019s not surprising that he eventually reached the end of his ability to handle his responsibilities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Overwhelmed by the needs of the people and their constant complaining, he lost it. Numbers 11 records his meltdown: <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

\u201cWhy have you brought such trouble on your servant? Why are you angry with me, and why do you burden me with all these people? Did I conceive all these people? Did I give them birth so you should tell me, \u2018Carry them at your breast, as a nursing mother carries a baby,\u2019 to the land that you swore to give their ancestors?\u201d (vv. 11\u201312)<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

It went downhill from there.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

\u201cWhere can I get meat to give all these people? For they are weeping to me, \u2018Give us meat to eat!\u2019 I can\u2019t carry all these people by myself. They are too much for me. If you are going to treat me like this, please kill me right now if I have found favor with you, and don\u2019t let me see my misery anymore.\u201d (vv. 13\u201315)<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

I don\u2019t normally identify with Moses, but in this instance? Oh yes. A thousand times yes. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Overwhelmed by a job that had grown beyond his ability to handle, he had reached his breaking point. Thankfully, he had the good sense and spiritual maturity to bring his needs to the Lord.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. God will provide help, but we must accept it.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

When Moses cried out to God, God provided what he needed to lighten his load. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Listen to how God, in His kindness, responded to Moses:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

\u201cBring me seventy men from Israel known to you as elders and officers of the people. Take them to the tent of meeting and have them stand there with you. Then I will come down and speak with you there. I will take some of the Spirit who is on you and put the Spirit on them. They will help you bear the burden of the people, so that you do not have to bear it by yourself.\u201d (vv. 16\u201317)<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

God didn\u2019t absolve Moses of his responsibility. He still had to work\u2014and work hard\u2014but God provided others to help him. Moses could have gotten prideful, felt threatened, or rejected the help God provided. Instead, he received it as a gift.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When Moses set up the legal and judicial system for the Israelites, he appointed those seventy heavenly helpers to share the load.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I\u2019ve never had a team of seventy show up at my front door, but I\u2019ve seen God provide assistance in unexpected ways and from unexpected sources when I cry out to Him. When He does, I must humbly and gratefully accept the help He sends. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

3. We can learn to delegate wisely.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Sometimes, we\u2019re the only person who can handle a responsibility (marriage, parenting, etc.), but not always. And not in every area. Wise people learn to ask themselves, \u201cIs this a responsibility only I can fulfill, or can someone else help?\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Based on the answer, we can prayerfully delegate some of the tasks that fill our plates to overflowing. Allowing others to help in the less-essential areas helps us say no to those things that drain time and energy from our primary callings. You\u2019re the only mother your child has, but there are others who can serve on that committee, volunteer for that ministry, or coach that sports team.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We must also take into account our season of life. Our days will look different if we\u2019re in the years of active parenting, intense caregiving, or poor health. Young parents should have different priorities than empty nesters. Retired people have more free time than young marrieds. As the challenges of life ebb and flow, we must adjust the tasks we allow to fill our days.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Rest in His Strength<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

I\u2019m grateful that the Bible records both the best moments and the worst moments of some of the heroes of our faith. These accounts provide instruction for what to avoid and guidance for what to imitate. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Even godly people sometimes feel overwhelmed. This can be a good thing if it prompts us to re-evaluate our commitments and determine if we\u2019re spending our best time and energy on what matters most in God\u2019s eyes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the account I affectionately call \u201cMoses\u2019s Mighty Meltdown,\u201d I learned that even godly people sometimes feel overwhelmed. This can be a good thing if it prompts us to re-evaluate our commitments and determine if we\u2019re spending our best time and energy on what matters most in God\u2019s eyes. He invites us to cry out to Him for help and enables us to accept it humbly. And He\u2019ll help us delegate while providing the strength to do what only we can do.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I\u2019m grateful that when God calls us to a relationship, a ministry, or a job, He promises to provide everything we need to accomplish it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Are you feeling overwhelmed? <\/p>\n\n\n\n

That\u2019s a good thing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Go to Him. Seek His direction. Obey what He tells you to do. Delegate when necessary.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Then rest in the strength only He can provide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

He said to me, \u201cMy grace is sufficient for you, for my power is perfected in weakness.\u201d Therefore, I will most gladly boast all the more about my weaknesses, so that Christ\u2019s power may reside in me. (2 Corinthians 12:9<\/a>)<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n
