Loving yourself seems so contrary to a life of humility and service. The truth is though that we must learn to see ourselves as God sees us. God is not swayed by our physical appearance, the house we live in or the car we drive. He doesn't notice the hair style, makeup or color of your skin. All the things we judge ourselves for and don't like God sees past. So loving our selves is accepting our outward appearances as trivial and loving what God sees, our heart. Sometimes thats harder.
