Being a disciple is when we willingly surrender the things in our lives that keep us from being all that God created us to be and become!

Jesus says the 2nd greatest or most important commandment is to love your neighbor as yourself. What does that mean? It means to take care of your neighbor…the same way you take care of yourself. It means to be responsible for your neighbor…the same way you are responsible for yourself! So…Jesus is saying… love your neighbor in the same way you love yourself! It is not wrong to love yourself! It is not a sin to love yourself! Just keep it healthy! How do we keep it healthy? By Loving God and loving people and loving ourselves! I believe that people need the answers to the question, “WHY SHOULD I LOVE MYSELF?” The first reason that you should love yourself is because God created you!
