What If Self-Care Is Actually Obedience? Boundaries, Forgiveness, And The Joy God Actually Desires

What If Self-Care Is Actually Obedience? Boundaries, Forgiveness, And The Joy God Actually Desires

In this episode, i wrestle out loud with a question many of us quietly carry:
Is self-love always wrong—or did we misunderstand what God was asking of us?

Yes, Jesus calls us to love.
Yes, He calls us to forgive—even our enemies.
But love and forgiveness do not automatically mean access, proximity, or relationship.

Sometimes we confuse being “Christ-like” with being constantly available, tolerating harm, or shrinking ourselves to keep the peace.
But staying in relationships that consistently belittle, wound, or drain you does not honor God—it slowly prevents you from becoming who Jesus created you to be.

This episode is a reminder that:

  • Love doesn’t have to look like being best friends with everyone

  • Forgiveness doesn’t require reconciliation in every situation

  • It is okay—holy, even—to love people from a distance

God never called us to live exhausted, resentful, or empty while trying to love well.
He desires our obedience with joy, and that joy flows when our cup is filled with Him.


Jesus isn’t only present in church or spiritual moments.
He’s with us in the everyday—in rest, movement, creativity, errands, and caring for the body and life He entrusted to us.


Loving yourself the right way isn’t selfish.
It’s stewardship.
Remember, your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit, and your life matters to God to you know. If you’ve ever felt guilty for needing boundaries…If you’ve stayed too long out of fear, obligation, or shame…This conversation is for you.
