CONTRARY | All I Need (Ep 3)

Today is a response to the self-love movement, and the damage it can cause to the human heart. We were not made to be sustained by our own love, we were made for the love of God, to receive it, extend it to others, and be fulfilled by the grace it brings forth. It is designed to create in us a gratitude and perspective that ushers us into a place where our mantra becomes: Jesus is all I need. Our love is not enough, for ourselves or anyone else, but we can rejoice in the fact that His love is.
