Welcome to Week 1 of our Fruits of the Spirit Self-Care Series, where we explore how to live a life guided by the Holy Spirit! This week, we’re focusing on LOVE, the first and most foundational fruit of the Spirit. Love is more than just a feeling—it’s a selfless, sacrificial, and unconditional way of living that reflects God’s love for us.
Let’s dive into how you can embrace love as a self-care practice and share it with others this week!
What Are the Fruits of the Spirit?
The Fruits of the Spirit, as described in Galatians 5:22-23, are nine attributes of a Spirit-filled life. They reflect God’s character and serve as evidence of spiritual growth.
This week’s focus is on LOVE, a fruit that teaches us to prioritize others while recognizing our own worth in God’s eyes.
How to Practice Self-Care Through Love
Love starts from within. Here are three simple ways to cultivate love in your life this week:
1. Show Yourself Love
Start by appreciating who God made you to be. Take time for self-reflection and gratitude with these steps:
• Journal Prompt: Write down 3 things you love about yourself.
• Daily Affirmation: “I am worthy of love and created in God’s image.”
2. Share Love with Others
Extend kindness to the people in your life:
• Send a thoughtful text or note to someone you appreciate.
• Offer a small act of service, like making coffee for a loved one or calling a friend who needs encouragement.
3. Embrace God’s Love Daily
Carve out time for prayer or meditation to reflect on God’s unconditional love for you. Read scriptures like 1 Corinthians 13:4-8, which beautifully define love in action.
