23 | Finding the Balance of Self-Love in Scripture. A Continuation of Episode #21

More Power Than You Think : Anatomy of a Christ-like Mind

“We are not loving ourselves because of who we are, but Whose we are and who we are in Him!”

There is so much we need to add to our last discussion on self-love (Episode 21) to make sure we are staying in alignment with scripture. We want to be sure we are not applying this truth in a worldly way because then it will be mixed with error.
In this episode, I clarify what loving ourselves is not, and bring in scriptures that help us get a clearer picture of how to apply self-compassion into our lives.
I also address the bondage of staying in condemnation and living with a cast-down spirit.

We are not trapped in a sin we have committed. We have provision through Christ to acknowledge, repent, and receive forgiveness for our daily sin. We then get to move immediately back into abundant life with the Savior.
When we struggle to recover in our spirit for a sin we have committed, we can stay out of the despair of our sin by yes, acknowledging our sin, but then focusing on the provision instead of the failure. Focusing on God’s power, instead of our weakness.

I end this episode with the song Via Dolorosa and an Easter reminder to include into your life the provisions God offers us as a result of Christ's death, burial, and resurrection.
This episode has the potential to help you get unstuck in many ways!
