"just do it" syndrome

A couple of days after my birthday and a couple of months into my first job as a youth pastor, feeling slightly over my head...which is a good thing :) i realize more and more as the days continue to pile upon each other that it is God who transforms hearts and lives; i CANNOT. i am also handicap when it comes to "running" a youth ministry. without the Holy Spirit;...well, i am in trouble and do everything in vain. i have found that it is all too easy to fall into what i call "just do it" syndrome, where we do things just because. To the point of forgetting why we do them or for whom.

i have learned that "just do it" can be dangerous, to a point that we keep ourselves busy by pursuing our own agenda or someone else's. My hope is to only please God and accomplish His agenda. And this is a worthy cause to pursue.
