Why is there so much on my mind?
How do I balance it all?
I feel like just running away from it all.
I am tired just all the time.
There are times my mind feels like it is going to explode.Everybody wants everything all the time from me. 
Who will help me?
What is this thing called burn out?
Stop the world I want to get off.

Matt 6:27,33-34  Who of you by worrying can add a single hour to his life? ... But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well. Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own.

Heb 13:5-6  Keep your lives free from the love of money and be content with what you have, because God has said, "Never will I leave you; never will I forsake you."  So we say with confidence, "The Lord is my helper; I will not be afraid.  What can man do to me?"

Matt 11:28-30  "Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest"

We have multiple demands of life just keep coming at us.  If we have gone through separation or divorce we have just compounded the expectations and costs.  We live in a rich nation with technology to help us, then why are we the most stressed.  Our prosperity has increased our stress by providing a myriad of great options to have to choose from, complicating life.  Sometimes our stress is of our own making, taking on way too much.  To say something is to be fired or thought of as strange or weak or even whining.  Not being able to share with someone increases the burden.  You've given it your best shot and now you are at a loss of what to do next.

Will I make it? 
Where will I get the strength to go on? 
 How do I balance it all?
