A lot of spiritual burnout is going on nowadays. That word burnout is becoming more and more common. It describes the state of fatigue that comes on a person who has been pushing too hard in life. Usually it is experienced by a person who is idealistic, or a person who has an attitude of high achievement. These types of people want to accomplish things, but they have a hard time pacing themselves. They have a difficult time saying “no.” They just push and push and strive and strive until one day they completely exhaust themselves and they just burn out.
