The message of Jesus was not that we should love ourselves; it was that we should love one another as we so love ourselves. Some say we need to love ourselves before we can love anyone else, but the reverse is equally true.

I have found one inextricably linked to the other; acceptance of the other made room for self love; and honor and respect for self made room for appreciation and love of the other.

We'll said sister, I know that loving others with an unconditional love has given me a better understanding of the love my Jesus has for all of us,all people, not just my brothers and sisters in Christ. GOD BLESS you and your ministry.

“We love because He first loved us”. I think we are able to love others by understanding we ourselves are lovable. It’s hard to truly love someone else without loving/ valuing ourselves.

I agree

The more I find love within myself for the things I have done and felt and experienced the more I can pass that too others. It takes practice.

I do believe love must come full circle in order to be truly felt. We must love ourselves, and by that I mean forgive ourselves for what we feel are our short falls / failures, so that we don’t place those same judgements on others. We must feel in order to be felt. #chooselove

The problem is if we are not loving
Replying to @marwilliamson
You can’t love yourself if you are bad with others in fact what makes you love your self is good you do to others.this’s our glory as human beings.
