Weary in Well-Doing

Description

Weary in Well-Doing: Navigating the Chronos World to Find Peace & Restoration by Drs. Douglass is the second volume in the Healing Hands – When God “Writes” the Wrong series. This deeply compassionate book speaks directly to the hearts of those who have given endlessly of themselves—parents, caregivers, nurses, teachers, pastors, community leaders, and everyday believers—yet find themselves weary, overlooked, or even abandoned when their own time of need arises.

Through a blend of biblical teaching, theological reflection, and real-world narratives, the authors expose the painful reality of living in the Chronos world—a temporary, imperfect world where good deeds often go unacknowledged, where justice feels delayed, and where those who pour out love frequently receive little in return. Yet, this book does not leave the reader in despair. It points beyond discouragement to God’s greater design and the Kairos world, where His justice, love, and joy are fully revealed.

The pages of Weary in Well-Doing offer practical wisdom for restoring balance: how to set healthy boundaries, how to reframe expectations, and how to embrace joy that transcends circumstance. Drawing on insights from Scripture, theology, and even therapeutic principles, Drs. Douglass provide both spiritual encouragement and actionable steps to help readers move from exhaustion to renewal.

At its heart, this book is both a diagnosis and a balm. It acknowledges the unseen sacrifices of the weary soul but reminds every reader that their labor is never wasted in God’s sight. In Him, there is peace, strength, and the joy that cannot be taken away. Whether you are burned out from ministry, exhausted from caregiving, or simply tired of giving more than you receive, Weary in Well-Doing is a guide to rediscovering hope and finding restoration for body, mind, and soul.
