I Love Myself and I Love Everybody Else

"I love myself and I love everybody else," is the mantra I've adopted for the month of February. Yet, I have to tell you: sometimes those are not always the easiest things to do. There've been times when I've come down way too hard on myself because of my imperfections. Then there have been times when it's been difficult to love everybody else, particularly those who have hurt me, whether intentionally or not. But let's praise God that His love is strong enough to pick us up and allow us to love anyhow. Heavenly Father, thank you for your perfect love that enables us to love and be loved, despite any situation. In Jesus' name we pray. Amen.
