The church is often avoidant of the topic of “self”. The world on the other hand, throws around the word “self”. We hear the term “self-care” mentioned every other day. There has to be a balance. Because while as Christians, we’re not supposed to be self-involved, our relationship with our “selves”- our souls- flows into all our other relationships. Even our relationship with God. The bible tell us that we ought to love our neighbour as ourselves. So, can we then truly love others if we do not love ourselves? And not love as in the feeling, but love in action- kindness, responsibility, empathy, forgiveness, support, etc.
