2. The Care You Need for Your "Self"
Knowing what self-care is provides a point to begin. Since self-care involves addressing the issues and challenges that individuals must overcome in order to have and nurture a relationship with God so that they can answer their calling, we can begin to build a personal model for Christian self-care. What issues and challenges do we face? How can they be overcome? How is our relationship with God nurtured? How can we know our callings?
All of these questions merit full studies of their own. The Bible is an eternal record and guide for all of them. These pages simply suggest an approach that will "set you on the path," so to speak. We will explore ways to identify our challenges, exercise disciplines to help us face and overcome them, feed our souls to nurture our relationship with God, and seek discernment to know and fulfill our callings.
