The Exorcist - William Peter Blatty

Fascinating idea in this dialogue from The Exorcist, between Father Karras and Father Merrin: the idea of needing to love ourselves to accept that we could be loved by God. Self-esteem as a spiritual act. Daring to believe we could be lovable, loved, set apart. That's a dangerous, risky, frightening act of love. It brings the idea of fierceness and bravery to both love and spirituality.

My weekly Scripture reading
Lost Scriptures: Books that Did Not Make It into the New Testament - Bart D. Ehrman

I choose a verse or two for every week, and write them in my planner at the top of that week. I've found this practice gives me a focus throughout my days. This verse, from the Letter of Barnabas, was chosen for its simplicity: hope, have faith, do everything with love, joy in the world around us. That's God for me.
