DC is filled with people on a mission of their own whether or not they coin it's worth for God or not. More than the church involvement and titles we earn through leadership or financial giving is the importance of being available. I totally agree - free your schedule, and let God use you as a vessel as only He can. I know a pastor who has led more people to Christ by sitting with them at a bar than by just preaching it and putting on a "holy show". I wish more people would realize the importance of discipleship. Your involvement in church although it's service, is a lot of self-growth and fulfillment - an important concept. Learning to say no once in awhile and pouring into one or 2 people would be an worthy balance in my opinion.

Only he could do “it” all. I think you need to lighten up on yourself & realize that your desire to serve has boundaries based simply on your own human limitations (each of us has differing confines). Time is a precious commodity & perhaps prayer will help you reallocate it as God feels it can best be utilized. This activity should happen immediately so you can shed yourself this guilt. We were not made to carry guilt nor anger; they are “wired” into all of us to motivate corrective action. In your case, maybe less time spent in one area will free you to be more available in another – I think God will help you decide. As the previous post said – Jesus teaches us to take time away from what’s going on to reflect & regroup & talk to the father (ie just before the supper for 5,000), do the same.

You do alot of 'good' and though that is not the issue that you're frustrated about, I still think you should recognize that you've always helped people to the best of your abilities. More importantly, you can't help anyone despite business if you are frustrated with your own situation/life. Jesus took time to regroup ... so should you: Self reflection versus self frustration. -A I don’t think you should be so frustrated with yourself.
