Our society is consumed with selfcare. For far too many who are so absorbed by the matter, it is an idol they worship. Children are being neglected at the altar of their parent’s selfcare. People quit jobs or lose jobs because of neglecting their work and the reason given is selfcare. People are getting rich writing books on the subject. People worship their selfcare instead of gathering in the house of God to worship the true and living God that gave them the self they are worshiping instead of Him. God tells us in His Word that we do not really need a lot of help on the matter of selfcare, because we have a natural propensity to it in our carnal flesh. Jesus assumes this fact to be the case when He tells His followers to love others as they love themselves, which is recorded in many places like Matthew 19:19, 22:39. This is a quote from Leviticus 19, and it is recited by the lawyer who was tempting Jesus when Jesus asked him a question. It is also recorded by the Apostle Paul in Romans 13:9 & Galatians 5:14. James also speaks to this in his Epistle in chapter 2 and verse 8. This is what Jesus was also warning us about when He tells not to worry about the matters of selfcare in Luke 12:22. Paul also speaks of this when he commands men to love their wives in Ephesians 5:28-29, because we naturally care for ourselves and we need to care for our wife similarly. Many spouses neglect one another because they are consumed with their own care. I realize that some have neglected themselves or allowed themselves to be taken advantage of by others and, to be sure, both of those realities are also unbiblical. But I do not believe the solution should be an unbiblical emphasis on self to fix the problem. We humans like to over compensate for whatever problem we see and we often end up creating a new problem equally as bad as the one we are trying to fix. Unfortunately, there is not enough said about Spiritual Selfcare in our day and age, even among Christians. I hear Christians talk a lot about the matter of selfcare regarding their outer man and not enough regarding their inner man. And when they do talk about the inner man, it is more about mental and emotional wellbeing rather than spiritual wellbeing. Spiritual Selfcare is vital to our temporal and eternal wellbeing as well as to our responsibilities that we will give account to God for at the Judgment Seat of Christ. Spiritual Selfcare involves your prayer life, your worship, your witness, your service, your faithfulness, personal holiness, obedience to God’s will, and your stewardship in every facet of the word. I think each of us, each family, every church, every community, and our nation as well as the world; would be far better off if more people were more focused on Spiritual Selfcare than any other possible or trendy form of selfcare ever to come around.
