I wanted to run away from my calling. it has been an extremely difficult path that constantly humbles me to my knees.
Fear has taken a grip on me. The fear is not fearing personal failure as it once had been. It’s the fear of risking the livelihood of 30 other people in the team.
These are 3 things to hold on to when you want to quit your calling:
"You’re not fast enough. You’re not big enough. You’re not profitable enough,” dictates culture. Even if you’re probably doing everything right, there’s constant pressure to how you’re supposed to run the race. It drove me to work really long hours. The over-time consequence? I am unable to rest and undividedly "waste time” with the Lord. Always distracted. Always hurried.
The work is certainly rewarding, though it is hard work. Not that it is difficult because God calls me to do things I am not equipped for — rather He has been kind to sharpen the gifts in me—, it is hard because it is tiring. God does equip me, but there are definitely days where things are overwhelming.
