In Luke 9:23 said "Jesus said unto all, If any man would come after me, let Him deny himself and follow me!
While the world is striving, campaigning and pursuing, “self-love” Jesus encouraging us to “deny ourselves” It doesn't mean that because known women and men are encouraging those words, its already right! Many times if not all the time, we have to be very careful on what we hear and see from famous personality! It mostly near the truth but not the truth - or not really according to what Jesus said!
The Lord promised that if we take care of others and the ones He loves , HE (GOD) WILL TAKE CARE OF US!
God’s love and care is so much better and will never fail! You will never feel the need to “love yourself" - it’s usually the last act when you feel empty, when you are already self-pitying that no one loves you and nobody can love you but yourself! REMEMBER my brothers and sisters, God’s love is so enough and overflowing that you have enough to love and care for others!
Now, the only thing to really feel and understand that “God’s love” kind of love is to DENY YOURSELF , the opposite of what the world is telling you !
Start to take care of others and love others the way you think to love yourself! Then that’s it! Enjoy a life full of love! It’s the law of the universe - What you give , you get it more back to you
Have a wonderful weekend!
