It’s good and right that I should encourage someone else today. I will pay the same respect to myself, too. ~ Casey, Karen. Each Day a New Beginning: Daily Meditations for Women (Kindle Locations 3279-3280). Hazelden Publishing.

Jesus quoted a saying
old two thousand years ago.
Obviously we it’s in the genes
to see to others before ourselves,
never getting around to ourselves.
But it’s easier to ignore myself.
I know God made me and makes no junk.
I know Jesus assumed we love ourselves
in saying to love others as we love us.
I know I deserve to be loved
even by myself. So today
I choose to respect myself
and to love me, too.
God help me!
