Leading worship is physically, emotionally, creatively and spiritually exhausting. Not just on Sundays, but all throughout the week of set planning, service prep, scheduling, rehearsals, and volunteer investment.

Your capacity is a currency that you spend every day. Make sure you have some of that currency left for yourself and your family. Don’t push so hard that you bankrupt yourself. Budget your time and effort, so you have something left at the end of the day.

I know you want to do your very best. The Lord deserves it, right? But sometimes we can be our own worst enemy. Our inner critic is loud. We want things to be excellent. But guarding our capacity and budgeting our effort wisely might mean that your transitions this week may not be as smooth, your lighting scene might not be perfect, or that piece of tech or gear you really wanted to implement might not happen this week.

If you don’t properly budget your capacity, and give so much of yourself to your ministry, your day job, and other things, you’ll have nothing left for yourself or your family. That’s not honoring to God.

Know the signs of burnout. If things start to feel like a chore, if the joy is no longer there, if you’re so exhausted that you have nothing left in the tank for your spouse, your kids, or even yourself, you need to act now. Hit the reset button. Make time for rest. Talk to someone about how you’re feeling. Do it before it’s too late. Before you’re forced to by outside factors.

Worship leader, take care of yourself. Be honest about your capacity and know when you need some margin in your life. Seek the Lord and spend time with Him, take that time off (the church will be okay), invest in your family and pursue your spouse if you’re married. See a therapist- there’s nothing wrong with that.

Pastor, listen to your worship leader. If they are telling you they’re overwhelmed, they truly are. Give them space, ask how you can help. Maybe that meeting could be an email, that book shouldn’t be a required read right now, or that event or project can wait.

Let’s do a better job with our capacity, so we can honor God, love ourselves and our families well, and avoid burnout.
