Four Ways Moms Can Self-Care by Attending First to Soul-Careಮಾದರಿ

4 | Submit to the preparation.

Jesus lived approximately 33 years on earth in the flesh. Of those 33 years, 30 were spent attending to the needs of his family, while only 3 were spent in ministry.

If Jesus spent 90% of his earthly life in the “preparation” stage, then how much more will we need? The road may seem long, but not all of the exhaustion can be satisfied with self-care.

We may find an itch that can’t be scratched by focusing on ourselves at that moment. Since all good gifts come from God, we prioritize the One who can truly satisfy. God is not slow to fulfill his promises.

Rather, this is an opportunity to renew your heart and mind for Christ. You will enjoy the self-care activities so much more once your soul is at peace in the will of God.

You have permission to choose the good portion first. Sit at the feet of Jesus—he will give you the rest and relaxation you desire. Delight in self-care from the solid foundation of soul-care. Believe Jesus when he says that if you seek him first, all these things will be added unto you!
