For the last couple of days I've been
feeling green. I wish I could say it was envy but sadly I picked up
a bug of some kind and it has taken some work to get rid of it. What
didn't help is that my body is feeling run down and greatly in need
of my up coming holiday.
When fatigue sets in it lowers our
bodies immunity and allows germs to attack our system. Under healthy
circumstances those germs would not stand a chance but because we are
exhausted the body had no energy to fight back.
The same thing happens in our spiritual
lives. When we are strong and healthy we have the energy and
strength to fight the spiritual battles that come our way, but when
we are fatigued our defences get dropped and we open the door to
attack.
Have you been skipping taking leave so
that you can bank it and get paid out? If so, that might not be the
wisest idea. Rather take a shorter leave if necessary but make sure
you take time out. Physical and spiritual fatigue can both have
devastating effects, so allow yourself the time you need to
recuperate.
