We often hear a lot about how important it is to take care of others. May God help us to take care of others cheerfully, consistently, and always to the glory of God. May God continually strengthen us as we take care of our family members, take care of the poor and needy, and take care of the elderly. As we have been reminded time and time again, we are privileged to serve!
Dear Friends, it is however crucial not to forget how very important it is to take care of ourselves! If we focus on taking care of others and neglect taking care of ourselves, we are creating a perfect recipe for burnout, breakdown, fatigue, stress and discouragement. When we don’t take care of ourselves, we cannot operate in our maximum capacity for God, we are not encouraging ourselves, and we are actually not bringing the ultimate glory to God in the long run!
Dear Friends, Please remember:
Taking care of your body brings glory to God!
Taking care of yourself brings honor to God!
Caring for your body is not selfish… God wants you to take care of yourself!
