the kindness of God
“If I am to know God as He really is, then I must not just accept that God is kind; I must embrace His kindness as my own. I need that kindness to saturate my being and transform me.”
I wrote this quote down, and now I can’t remember where I read it, so I can’t give the author the credit he deserves, but it really struck me. the idea of embracing God’s loving kindness as our own. i don’t quite know what that looks like, but I know that I want to do a better job of loving myself and other people. Sometimes the loving myself part is almost harder than the loving other people part. I naturally feel selfish if I take too much time for myself, but really, if I’m not taking care of myself and embracing God’s love for me, I can’t fully love others.
