Hyper awareness of ourselves (insecurity, pride, and everything in between) is the number one reason why our health, fitness, and nutrition plans don't pan out. It's why we as a society struggle with social skills in face to face interaction and with healthy boundaries on social media. It's why genuine emotional and spiritual connection and intimacy with our spouses is a constant challenge. God has a lot to say about this and thank goodness... it's all Good News about how to fight this battle of our ego verses the Spirit of God within us. Let's ponder together on these issues, turn to God for grounding and direction, and live GODfidently in the way we care for our bodies, engage with others, present ourselves to the world on social media, and love our spouses with genuine hearts.
