**Learning to delegate Part I**

Former United States President Ronald Reagan said: "Surround yourself with the most competent people you can get, delegate authority, and don't interfere." However, in our desire to serve God we accept responsibilities that "are too heavy for us." Moses spent every minute of the day listening to complaints from an endless queue of people. Until his father-in-law told him: "You will faint completely, you and also this people who are with you..." And I recommend that he appoint leaders, ".... Thus your burden will be lightened, because they will carry it with you" ( Exodus 18:22). It was a satisfactory solution for everyone: on the one hand, people received help faster; on the other, Moses could dedicate himself to being a better leader.
If you feel overwhelmed, maybe you are doing more than what God asks of you. Pray about the tasks at hand, so that neither you nor those around you miss out on God's best. Let's learn to delegate let go of the burdens that God never wanted you to carry and direct all your efforts to those who have been called.
