Episode 13

When you think of self care, images of face masks, pedicures, and cookie dough ice cream might come to your mind. I think that’s because the popular concept of this buzzword “self care” is centered around bringing comfort to ourselves. However, I believe that true self care has a lot less to do with comfort, and a lot more to do with discipline. *ouch*

On Episode 13, “Jenn’s Guide to True Self Care,” I’m talking about stewarding over the life God has given you in every area — from nutrition, to budgeting, and even getting enough rest.

Jenn’s Guide to Quiet Time

Weekly Scripture

•Psalm 119:33-40 TPT

Give me revelation about the meaning of your ways

so I can enjoy the reward of following them fully.

Give me an understanding heart so that I can

passionately know and obey your truth.

Guide me into the paths that please you,

for I take delight in all that you say.

Cause my heart to bow before your words of wisdom

and not to the wealth of this world.

Help me turn my eyes away from illusions

so that I pursue only that which is true;

drench my soul with life as I walk in your paths.

Reassure me of your promises, for I am your beloved,

your servant who bows before you.

Defend me from the criticism I face

for keeping your beautiful words.

See how I long with cravings for more of your ways?

Let your righteousness revive my spirit!

Scripture Meditation Questions

•What do verses 33-34 say are the result of revelation and understanding?

•Why do you think the psalmist prayed that his heart would “bow before God’s words of wisdom and not to the wealth of this world?” Why do you think that shift of heart posture from worldly wealth to heavenly wisdom is important?

•The psalmist said, “Help me turn my eyes away from illusions so that I pursue only that which is true.” Ask yourself, “what am I meditating on that is an illusion and not rooted in truth?”
