Learning-to-Love-Yourself

He said, love your neighbor as yourself. Now, I've always

known that that was a command, but it's also just

an observation that the way you love your neighbor is

the way you love yourself. If you haven't received God's

acceptance of you, you won't be able to accept anybody

else as they are because you don't even love yourself.

And so a lot of times it starts there. It

starts with saying, God, I can't go into these relationships

anymore half empty and needing people. Sometimes I'm so needy.

I was asking God the other day to help me

not be so hard on others, and God said, well,

first you're gonna have to not be so hard on you,

because what starts here flows here, flows here, flows here,

flows here,
