You Deserve Kindness Too
<p><br/></p><p>Hi Soul Anchor!🤗</p><p>Let me share a particular experience I’ve had several times.</p><p>You know, I’ve always been a fan of love, not necessarily in the romantic sense, but the kind of love that shows up in small, pure, sincere gestures. I’m deeply moved by people who care genuinely, with no ulterior motives. Even though I may not ALWAYS express it outwardly, maybe because I tend to observe more than I act, one thing I’ve noticed over the years is this:</p><p>Most people who carry love for others… are often the ones who get hurt the most.</p><p>Why?</p><p>Because many times, the very people they care for begin to dump all their frustrations on them. They perceive them as “safe,” or worse, “vulnerable.” And in trying to be there for everyone, the loving heart slowly forgets how to be there for itself. They pour and pour until there is nothing left inside. They comfort others so well that they forget how to comfort themselves.</p><p>But when Jesus said, “Come unto Me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.”</p><p>He wasn’t just inviting you to drop your burdens, He was revealing a pattern.</p><p>A truth.</p><p>A rhythm for the soul.</p><p>Because in reaching out to others, you will inevitably carry their weight, their tears, their fears, and their heaviness. And burdens, whether emotional or spiritual, always weigh a person down. Unless you learn how to lay them at the Master’s feet, you will eventually break under what was never meant to remain on your shoulders.</p><p>Even Jesus, after pouring out into multitudes, withdrew to the mountains to pray. He was refilling what He had given out. Because you can only pour what you have, and you can only continue giving when you’ve learned how to return to the One who fills you.</p><p>So here’s the reminder your heart deserves:</p><p>In loving others, don’t forget to love yourself.</p><p>In showing up for others, don’t forget to show up for your own soul.</p><p>And in carrying others, don’t forget you were never designed to carry everything alone.</p><p>Let grace refill you. Let rest find you. Let Jesus strengthen you again.</p><p> I’m rooting for you, and more than that, Jesus is rooting harder for you.</p><p>I remain,</p><p>Abbas_Comforted 🌿</p>
