We care for ourselves:-

How Should I Care for Myself?

Spending time with God and knowing God is the first and most important part of biblical self-care. Here are four passages of scripture that offer us instruction on how to look after ourselves:

1. BE QUIET, REST AND PRAY.

Mark 1:35 says,

“Very early in the morning, while it was still dark, Jesus got up, left the house and went off to a solitary place, where he prayed.”

Here we see Jesus modelling a quiet time, by himself and praying. To properly care for oneself, it is important to spend time with ourselves and think about our place int he world and in the family of God.

2. KEEP UP WITH OUR NEEDS

Matthew 15:32 says:

“Jesus called his disciples to him and said, ‘I have compassion for these people; they have already been with me three days and have nothing to eat. I do not want to send them away hungry, or they may collapse on the way.”

When Jesus feeds his followers, he gives them what they need at that time. Jesus sets a precedent for eating and making sure we take proper care of ourselves. He wants us to be healthy. He gives us what we need.

4. TAKE CARE OF OUR BODIES

1 Corinthians 6:19–20 says:

“Your bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit, therefore honour God with your bodies.”

We are precious and hold great value, and we should take care of the temples we reside in — our bodies. This means we should eat well, have exercise, and watch what we do by avoiding things that may be physically or spiritually harmful.

Christians care for themselves not just for their own good, but so that they can care for others. Scripture says to love God with all your heart, mind, soul, and strength and to love your neighbour as you love yourself.
