Why I Stopped Putting Others Before Myself As a Christian

A few years ago, I stopped “putting others before myself” like I was taught.
I found myself in a place where
I was physically and mentally exhausted
I was full of RESENTMENT
I never had enough time
I felt low mood a LOT
I felt like a victim to others and God
Other Christian women and good coaches showed me that I was completely twisting Scripture when I thought that “putting others before myself” meant that:
1. I couldn’t/shouldn’t say no
2. I needed to keep other people calm/happy
These are classic people-pleasing traits. Christian teaching doesn’t require either. In fact, these behaviors are destructive to an abundant life with God.
If you’re still struggling to say “no” when it’s necessary or to do what’s best because someone may feel big feelings, I invite you to listen to today’s show as we really look at the lie we’ve been sold.
People pleasing is NOT “putting others before yourself,”
But bravo to the enemy for convincing us it was!
