Tsh Oxenreider | The Art of Simple
This world is huge. It is majestic. It is worth exploring just for the sake of knowing it. ~ Tsh Oxenreider

THINGS TO THINK ABOUT
Tsh’s advice to her 20 year old self :
He uses our weakness to get us where we need to be. ~ Susie Davis
We all have this natural inclination to search for the ideal, yet this side of heaven, we’re never going to find it. ~ Tsh Oxenreider
We’re all so off from the picture and purity of who Jesus is and yet God has this huge abundant love for all these pieces of the Church. It’s kind of beautiful. ~ Susie Davis
We learn best through story – even in a fiction kind of way. ~ Tsh Oxenreider
Tsh describes self care as “taking care of your self so you can be of service to others through your purpose in living here on earth.”
Susie says self care is important “so that we complete the work that God has assigned to us and be fully present for the people we love.” (2 Timothy 4:5 and Philippians 1:6)
What does self care look like for you and why is it important for you and the people you love?
What’s the best-worst thing that’s happened to you that has helped you know God better?
