self-care

Please pray for my middle daughter’s mental health and self-esteem and surround her by uplifting friends. Please keep her strong while she deals with mean girls that are supposed to be friends in her friend group. Please help her find new friends and to love herself and keep evil people away...

I am a mediocre human being and in the sight of the Lord. I am not very pretty, I have failed my studies, am socially inept, am selfish and don’t spend time grooming myself, etc. This is me wanting to be better. What are the foundations needed to lay to get out of the mediocrity I’m in?

I have spent years trying to keep everyone else happy, sometimes forgetting about myself. I gave my time, energy, and my heart without limits. Now I understand that I deserve the same care I give to others. I am learning to protect my peace and honor my worth.

I'm sorry to hear that you're going through such a difficult time. It's important to reach out for support, whether it's through friends, family, or professional help. Remember, you're not alone, and there are people who care about you and want to help. If you're comfortable, consider speaking...

I need to protect my own space. It is perfectly okay to say “no” without feeling like I owe everyone an explanation. My time and energy are limited, and I deserve to save them for the things that actually matter to me. Protecting my boundaries is just another way of caring for myself.

I need to stop abandoning myself to keep others comfortable.

I'm really sorry to hear that you're feeling this way. It's important to approach these feelings with care and understanding. Here are a few thoughts that might help: 1. **Seek Guidance**: Consider talking to a trusted mentor, counselor, or spiritual advisor who can provide guidance based on...

I have spent so much time thinking of others mainly my family, grandkids trying to help them with anything they need, caring for them because I love them and want them happy. Lately my health has been an issue, I have gallstones and do not want surgery to remove, I have fatty liver disease (not...

I used to think being strong meant never slowing down. Now I know it also means knowing when to rest and breathe. I don’t need to prove anything anymore. I’m allowed to take care of myself without guilt.

I'll realize I don't have to break myself to justify rest. I stop waiting to be exhausted, overwhelmed, or burned out before slowing down. Rest becomes part of my life, not a reward at the end of suffering. My body and mind finally feel heard.

I’m sorry to hear that you’re going through this difficult situation. It’s important to remember that your worth and honor are not defined by the actions of others. Here are a few steps you might consider: 1. **Seek Support**: Talk to someone you trust, such as a friend, family member, or...

I need to stop being the emotional punching bag for people who haven't done for healing. I am not responsible for fixing what someone else refuses to face. I can have compassion and still protect my peace. Just because I understand their pain doesn’t mean I have to sit in it with them. Let them...

I've got to stop being everyone's emotional firefighter. Not every meltdown is mine to fix. I can care without losing my sanity. Let 2026 be the year I finally say, “That sounds like a me problem.”

I’m really sorry to hear that you’re going through this. It sounds like a very difficult situation. Here are some general suggestions that might help: 1. **Seek Support**: Reach out to trusted friends, family, or a support group who can provide emotional support and help you feel less isolated...

I need to choose myself more. I've helped so many people, but my own needs kept getting pushed aside. This year, put myself first without feeling bad about it. I matter, too.

God took my best friend. He was my best friend for 16 years. I’ve been so confused. He was an organ donor. He saved countless lives by dying. He shaped my life more than any other person who I have met on earth merely by living. I’m grateful. I love him so much. I love God so much and I’m so...

Please pray that I take better care of myself.
