Episode #46: Consecrate Thyself
from Shine, Mommy, Shine Podcast Hosted by Kirstin Baxter
Hey mama, In this episode, we dive deep into the power of the word "consecrate" and explore how it relates to loving ourselves in a divine, God-honoring way. We often hear about loving God and loving others, but what about “as thyself”? Have we unintentionally left out a crucial part of the great commandment? I share how my study of the 1820s definition of consecrate—to set apart as sacred and dedicated to God—opened my eyes to the way we can view our efforts, our struggles, and even our everyday moments as holy and meaningful. What if loving ourselves isn’t selfish, but actually part of consecrating our lives to God? We'll explore powerful truths like: ✨ The connection between our divine identity and our ability to love ourselves ✨ How small, everyday acts of motherhood are actually sacred offerings ✨ The difference between begrudging obligation vs. intentional consecration ✨ Why giving God our imperfect 1% is still enough Through scripture, prophetic counsel, and real-life application, I’ll challenge you to see your daily efforts—even the laundry, carpool, and repeated pep talks to your kids—as an offering to God. Listen in, and let’s redefine what it means to love ourselves in a way that honors who God created us to be. 👉 Hit play now and let’s dive in! Are you following me on Instagram yet?
