We are often very intentional about how we speak to others. What we often forget is that the baseline that truly determines this and also our choices is how we speak to ourselves.
When was the last time we reflected on how we speak to ourselves? Is it harsh? Is it kind? Is it filled with grace? We often forget that our treatment of ourselves and the degree of worthiness we attribute to ourselves impacts the choices we decide are worthy of us.
The baseline that impacts everything is how we treat ourselves.
I suppose this is why Jesus said love your neighbor as you love yourself. (Matthew 22:39). There is no detaching the two.
