Gimme a Break, Gimme a Break, Break me off a piece of that Kit Kat Bar! So, goes the jingle for one of my favorite snacks. We all need a break. We all need to take time to breathe, time to relax and time to recover. I can remember a time when taking a break was the last thing I thought I ever needed to do. Early in my ministry, I was serving as a Youth Pastor. Being a Youth Pastor requires someone that is high energy and one that doesn’t mind having their schedule completely full. The problem with me though, I tend to always put others above myself. This created in my heart and physical body a breakdown. I became tired, wore out and lost my passion for Youth Ministry. I needed a break. God’s never wants us to burn out in a flame of glory. He wants us to have a long lasting flame for Him. Take time for yourself.
