Hi Everyone,
As I was offering some support to a friend today, I had this flow through me. Thought you might like it.
God created us to help elevate others when they’re not feeling as strong. Once they are strong again, then they can be more efficient in helping others. And the more lifting and elevating of others we do, the closer we are to God and His Graces within us and around us. The stronger, wiser, calmer, and more loving we become. the flowing of God’s Love elevates all that are touched by it. 
But it’s hard to lift others when we ourselves are “down”. Too many people focus on helping others without properly caring for themselves, leaving themselves in need of care. Many seem to think that taking care of themselves is somehow being selfish. But our bodies are a gift from God. Self-care has nothing to do with selfishness. Self-care is about honoring the spirit of God within us.
We are the spirit of God manifest. The more we allow our hearts to connect in oneness with God’s Love, the more His Hand is allowed to work through us.
Elevation from within to the elevation of all.
Thank you, Lord.
Blessings,
Irene
