Clay,
From someone who's been around church for a good long while: you'll never feel like you're doing enough. It's part of the struggle of grace and faith to just accept that you've been given a precious gift and you are accepted regardless of your merit. That doesn't mean don't do good works or things for God, but there's always going to be more need and more requests for service. Choose your activities with care because God doesn't want or need you to work yourself to death (or burnout) serving him. Ultimately the best things to do aren't activities, but attitudes you incorporate into your current life: genuinely love and serve the people you encounter, live joyfully, peacefully and generously; keep God sufficiency front and center so that anytime you think you're not ________ enough remember that he is and trust that he will work out what you as a mere mortal cannot. Hope this helps and hope you continue to be greatful that God has chosen to give his life to you and work through you.
