Staying Balanced

It's a Sunny Sunday Morning ! love that feeling! If you follow my battle quotes they usually speak about becoming a better you.
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.
