I am enjoying spending more time with my daughters now that they have their own homes.
Something I am learning now has to do with the great commandment.
Mark 12
30 Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength.’31 The second is this: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’There is no commandment greater than these.”

Seems that we need to learn to love ourselves and understand how much God loves us in order to love our neighbors. This doesn't mean we need to be self-centered, but if we understand who we are in Christ, we are better able to love others with the same type of love that he has shown us.
We will never do everything perfectly, but we can be assured that God loves us unconditionally.
