day no. 15,203: when we try to do everything, we wear out and others never grow up

Leading in the Christian world is not about doing everything. You do not lead by doing the brunt of the work. You lead by getting other people involved. You call on other jersey numbers and entrust real ministry to them.

Remember that and you'll be fine.

Ephesians 4:11-13
God gave the apostles, the prophets, the evangelists, the shepherds and teachers, to equip the saints for the work of ministry, for building up the body of Christ, until we all attain to the unity of the faith and of the knowledge of the Son of God, to mature manhood, to the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ

When we try to do everything, others do not grow up and we wear ourselves out.
When we all do our own parts, everyone grows in maturity as we bear each other up.
