Overwhelmed: Stop the Stress, Worry and Compassion Fatique

By Dr. Samaria Maria Colbert PhD

When Doing the Right Thing Leaves You Running on Empty.

"God, I am tired, I am weak, and I am done."

Have you ever whispered that prayer? It's not a plea for forgiveness or a song of praise-it's a desperate cry for survival. You started this journey with vigor, pouring your heart into your family, your career, and your ministry. But the fight has been long, and the strength that once carried you has vanished.

If you feel stuck, depleted, and emotionally bankrupt, you aren't necessarily doing something wrong. In fact, you might be exhausted simply because you've been doing the right thing for a long time.

In Overwhelmed, author Dr. Samaria M. Colbert, PhD meets you in that place of "no more steam." Drawing from the biblical perspective that God often waits until our resources are exhausted to reveal His greatest strength, this book serves as a lifeline for the weary soul.

In these pages, you will discover:
The Purpose of the Pit: Why God allows us to reach the end of ourselves so we can finally lean on Him.Identifying the Drain: How to distinguish between situational stress and the unhealthy patterns that keep you stuck in cycles of depletion.The Spiritual Shift: Recognizing when God allows what "used to work" to fail so He can move you into a new season of grace.
Even the strongest soldiers get tired of the fight. If you have done all you can and it still isn't enough, take heart: you are exactly where God can finally do the impossible. It's time to stop depending on your strength and start walking in His.

You don't have to choose between being a caring person and being a healthy one. Overwhelmed is your invitation to stop surviving and start thriving again. It's time to breathe. It's time to find your way back to you.
