Many people confuse self-love for arrogance. However, they couldn’t be further from the truth.
Self-love is the acknowledgment that God madd you in His image and that He loves you…. And if God loves you, then it’s ok to “love” yourself too. If He cares for you, then it’s ok to care for yourself too. If He has plans to prosper you, then its ok for you to have plans to prosper too.
Go out and show yourself some love today.

God made my soul come alive:
When I was dead in my trespasses and sins, God made me spiritually alive in the risen Lord Jesus Christ.
Colossians 2.13:
“And you, being dead in your sins and the uncircumcision of your flesh, hath he quickened together with him, having forgiven you all trespasses;”

Amen brother! Reminds me of a verse I read this morning: “For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision nor uncircumcision has any value. The only thing that counts is faith expressing itself through love.” (Galatians 5:6) God bless!

And what makes your soul come alive is that thing God has wanted you to do for a long time. The Joy and Love that we feel at that moment come from Him.

It is kind of like, “Love your neighbors as your self.” If you hate yourself it isn’t very challenging. After God you almost have to love your self first.
