How Can I Encourage A Discouraged Leader?

How can I encourage someone who has lost confidence in serving others? She has lead women for many years but now wants to back out...and she's only in her early thirties. Burn out is common for everybody...but how can I help her? (I need more than an empty platitude).

Because my friend may step down from leadership (because of her discouragement).....her job may fall to me. And I don't have a problem saying I'm a little nervous. Isn't being a leader really scary?

Thanks for the reminder (Tammie's Blog Series "Who Am I") that God is with me and has the experience/knowledge that I don't.

Satan Attacking In The Work Place

I have decided that since Satan seems to be attacking me in the work place that I will not sit by and wait for him to come to me. I decided that I will start to show up for work earlier than usual and start a devotion and prayer time right here where I am at. It is my prayer that through my prayer time that others here at work will join me in my quest for a Christian work place. I know that even though I am already being attacked by Satan that the attacks will only become stronger on me and those that decided to join with me in prayer. Because of this I come to you, my sisters in Christ, to ask for your prayer for me and my co-workers. I know that the power of God is able to sustain me. God has a plan for me here and I will not let Satan overcome what God has planned. This time will be tough but I know that through me God can do wonderful things. I praise God that he has been patient with me to catch on to his plan for me here at my work place. I give him all the glory, now for what he is going to accomplish.

Please Pray with me Sisters…
Lord God, I come to you and thank you for your love and your kindness, your compassion and your mercy. Father I ask that you be with me here at my work place and strengthen me to do what you have called me to do. Help me Father to know how to pray for those here, how to minister through your word and your love. Father help me to show Jesus to all those that surround me. Father, I pray that when Satan’s attacks come that you strengthen me to overcome what ever he throws at me. Help me, through your word to resist his temptations. Father, I ask right now that you forgive me of my sins and short comings, help me to live the light that you have given to me. Father, help me to let that light so shine that others will see my good works and glorify you. Father, I love you and I praise you, In Jesus Holy and Precious Name, AMEN.
