Pastors: one year in and struggling?

Am I the only one to notice that there seems to be such a thing as a 'first year dive’? It may be my imagination, but I think there's something to it.

I have a number of friends and know of several others who've got about one year in to a first position of responsibility – where you’re the senior pastor or vicar – and suddenly it hits them.

This is an enormously responsible role. And it’s far too big for me. I can’t do it all, so what should I do, and not do? It all seems to be down to me now. How do you cope?
