#103 - 3 Dangers of Soul Fatigue and How It Impacts Your Marriage
Are you walking around your house right now feeling… heavy?
Is the weight just making you so exhausted you wish you could stay in bed all day?
You’re so hungry, but also too tired to eat anything. Or maybe you just don’t care and eat everything in sight, cuz, whatever, who cares anymore.
I’m not actually talking about the number on the scale or how you look in a mirror…
What’s weighing you down is deeper within you. Your hunger is more than physical. It’s the heaviness in your heart, the sadness in your soul, and the exhaustion from exerting all your efforts to doing all the right things, keeping up with the kids, the house, and the husband.
You’ve become accustomed to distracting yourself with more chores, more screentime, less eye contact, fewer conversations, more work. More shrugging, sighing, irritability, and you can’t seem to shake the funk you’re in. It feels like this dark cloud looming over you and is pretty depressing.
You are most likely experiencing something more than being overly tired or even utterly exhausted… even deeper down, you may be experiencing soul fatigue.
Today we’re going to talk about 3 Reasons why Soul Fatigue is Dangerous and how it impacts our marriages, relationships, and worse…our relationship with the Lord.
