Ministerial Sleeplessness - Is There a Remedy?

On a practical and pastoral matter, is there anyone reading this post who is suffering from sleep problems?  Christian ministers under pressure of work or from people know what it is to suffer from sleep deprivation.  If this is your experience, or you know of someone who is in this position, then visit here.

Trying to carry on in your work or with life can be very challenging when you feel you are carrying the world on your shoulders is a near impossibility.  Thankfully God's amazing grace supports and upholds us in such times.

But how many know what it is to sit up in the early hours of the morning, unable to sleep, drinking tea or coffee and wondering what it is you were supposed to have done to attract such unchristian behaviour against you?  Then you need to visit this site. 

Gospel ministers do not get the support they need from ministerial colleagues when they are being persecuted for righteousness' sake; they are simply dumped, thrown on the scarp heap and left to die.  This fact and reality, on top of the hassle they receive, causes sleep to flee and leave them totally exhausted the next day.

Whilst a remedy for such unpropitious circumstances will take longer than a blog posting to describe, it is important to rule out all the obvious causes of sleeplessness - this book, which was written by Nelville Amis, will help you do that. 

Enjoy your read and let me know through the blog comment box how you get on.
