I was caught off guard. My spiritual mentor asked me today if I was gentle to myself.
“We must be Jesus to ourselves,” she said.
I was taken aback. I’ve heard about being Jesus to others, but I don’t think I’ve thought about using the same grace or perspective with myself.
I wonder if some of you need to hear that today.
Be gentle with yourself, as Jesus would be compassionate and gentle with you.
Any other way takes your life away. Saps you.
Peace to you,
