I must state up front here that I am speaking to myself in this blog at least as much if not more than you! I am trying though, so let's all make an attempt at treating well our body temple.
Jesus tells us, "know ye not thy body is a temple of the living God?". The Holy Spirit lies within each of us! This is what makes our body a temple of the living God.
How do you treat your temple? You wouldn't go into your church and throw trash or tear up the place would you? So what makes you think you can do that to your body???
Eating junk food, not exercising, not eating our daily servings of fruit, vegetables, nuts, seeds, and whole grains is being abusive to God's temple, our body. And then we become frustrated when we're in so much pain! Well, dear friend, what did you expect? The same goes for over doing it; doing physical things that we know is going to make us hurt, yet we become brain dead and do them anyway. Then complain because we're in pain!
The definition of stupidity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results. I don't know about you, but I've been acting fairly stupid as of late. The good news is that it's not too late to begin again!
I can begin today to take better care of my body and it will respond in kind with less pain, less suffering, and actual healing.
So, my goal for today is to eat no sugar and drink more water. How about you? How are you going to treat your body temple???
Wishing you peace always.....
