The key to the Christian life is not how hard we try to be spiritual, but how closely we stay connected to Christ. We don't need to worry so much about what we're doing. Our real focus should be on staying close to him.
If you find that living the Christian life is wearing you out, you could be trying to live it in your own strength - doing things FOR Christ rather than enjoying a relationship WITH Christ.
