We become so scattered in life today that sometimes we
forget the real purpose why we are hear.In other words we become out of balance. I read this earlier today and thought I would share it.
Joel says what I have been saying for most of my adult life. If we want to be the best we can be we have to stay in balance. Body, Mind and Spirit.
“For physical
training is of some value, but godliness has value for all things, holding
promise for both the present life and the life to come. ”
|
(1 Timothy 4:8, NIV)
|
Scripture talks about the value
of getting both physical exercise and spiritual exercise. Yes, our spiritual
development will last into eternity but our physical development helps us to
be more effective while we are here on earth. We have to take care of our
whole person in order to live balanced life and reach our full potential.
Remember, our bodies are the
temple of the Holy Spirit. Are you making time to take care of your temple?
Sometimes we make a bigger deal about getting exercise than we need to. You
don’t have to get a gym membership or work out for a long time to have
benefit. Just start somewhere. Start walking in your neighborhood. Take the
stairs instead of the elevator. Park a little further away from the grocery
store. Do whatever you can do to stay active because exercising spiritually
and physically is what makes a balanced workout!

Father, I declare
today that I am committed to be my best spiritually and physically. I desire
to honor you with my whole being. Help me to make good decisions for myself
and for my loved ones and be an effective example everywhere I go. In Jesus'
Name. Amen.
