“We often think of Christ’s life as the ultimate sacrifice - which it is - but we overlook that He practiced self care. He took time alone, He napped, He ate, He would be with people and then would take time away.
We have to balance that.
If we don’t invest time in developing our sense of self, we can’t be “self-less.” We wouldn’t have anything to offer. ”
“The spirit speaks to you through your mind and your heart. If you’re disconnected with your heart, you’re cutting off half of your personal revelation. Emotionally and Spiritually healthy people have experienced and integration of your mind and heart. ”
