The sermon was good on Sunday. Greg talked about love, how God IS love. If we want to be like God we need to love. Not necessarily love everyone but show love to everyone, to everyone!
I've been struggling, last week was really hard. During the sermon I realized something, as much as I love those around me, I don't love myself. I spend a lot of time ridiculing myself, demeaning myself. God wants me to love myself. Sunday as I sat there I really thought it could be a turning point, I thought if I couldn't all of a sudden love myself I could act like I did, treat myself well and eventually I actually would. It seemed so easy, I was excited. I was going to write this big uplifting blog and challenge everyone to love themselves, or do something nice for themselves. What a difference a day makes.
Love is a big deal, to know people love you, to know God loves you is indescribable. But what if Love isn't enough?

God's love is always enough - its available to us, we just have to choose to accept and live in it. Of course like everything, easier said than done. What I find hard about loving myself, is finding that balance of loving myself without thinking I'm being selfish.
Then......well then.....nothing will be.....
Then there would be nothing but hatred and violence. And hatred and violence are not good things. So, its good to have love in this world.
happy birthday michelle
