The cycle continues

9.5.2018
|
Daily Grace

I’ve come to believe that the most revolutionary relationship I have–not counting my relationship with God–is my relationship with myself.

I believe that we are called to love ourselves so that we can love our neighbor. I believe that loving God leads to loving self. When we love self, we practice how we are called to love others. Then when we love others, we love the incarnate God. And this cycle continues, leading us deeper into love with the One who is love.

What does it look like to practice revolutionary self-care?

This message is an excerpt of “The revolutionary act of self-care” by Rozella Haydée White in the May 30, 2018 issue of Café.
