I remind them of the verse where Christ commands us to "love your neighbor as yourself."<br />What many people forget is that if you don't first love yourself, you have nothing to give to your neighbor. Therefore, as you point out, it is important to make certain that we are growing, and glowing before we attempt to give some of that to others.<br />As always, a breath of fresh air, Master Dana. :)<br />--LarryAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05747456445006516191noreply@blogger.com
