And the work of righteousness shall be peace; and the effect of righteousness quietness and assurance for ever. (Isaiah 32:17 KJV)
If you're feeling compelled to do so much that you are physically worn out, you may be driven instead of led. Remember, you have to come apart from a busy routine before you come apart yourself. You have to get away from everything before you come apart physically, mentally, and emotionally. Give yourself time to get a good night's sleep.
It is tempting to do everything that everybody else is doing, be involved in everything, know everything, hear everything, and be everywhere, but it isn't God's best for you. Be willing to separate yourself from the compulsive activity before you come apart at the seams! Spend time with God, and ask Him to give order to your day.
Good advice. A lot of people need to do this before they end up completely falling apart and fall into depression and despair. If people could learn how to appreciate the blessing they have in their own lives, they might not try to do everything, to get everything they want. Also if people would learn that we don't have to have all the things that others have.
