The checklist continues to our last consideration toward optimal well being: our spiritual life.
Spiritual
Do I make time each day to feed my soul? Am I starving for something deeper, richer and more satisfying?
I've discovered in the summer when I'm not in a routine of regular Bible study, I often feel listless, restless with no sense of direction. An hour walk, while reciting a few Bible verses inspires me, helps to get me back on track. The disciplines of prayer, fasting, Bible study, memorizing and meditating are essentials to a healthy spiritual life but many of these great exercises have been forgotten. Once applied, however, their results won't be.
How about adding just one of the above to your daily routine for this month? (it only takes twenty-one days to develop a habit) Then add another until you are filled up and overflowing in your spirit.
Looking after our bodies is not a new thought but is expressed in scripture in 1 Corinthians 6:19-20 NAS, "Or do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit who is in you, whom you have from God, and that you are not you own? For you have been bought with a price: therefore, glorify God in your body."
As we bring our talk on health to a close, remember the three 'T's': Toned, Tough and Triumphant.
TONED physically,
TOUGH mentally,
and
TRIUMPHANT spiritually
Now how about taking a few minutes to talk to me about your health? I'd love to engage in a conversation where we can learn from and encourage one another as we embark on this journey of quality living.
