While we've been talking about caring for the people and world around us, it is equally important to care for our own selves. The greatest thing that God has given us to manage faithfully is our own lives! Sometimes it can be hard to love our selves when we mess up and hurt others, or disobey our parents or teachers.
However, it is important to remember that God loves us and sent Jesus to die for our sins - He cares for us and loves us even though He knows we mess up!
If God can continue to love us, then we must love ourselves!
We love ourselves by: eating healthy, taking time to rest, spending time in play/doing things we love, spending time with people, and spending time with God
A second is equally important: 'Love your neighbor as yourself. ~ Matthew 22:39 (NLT)
What does it mean to love yourself?
