“Do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit, who is in you, whom you have received from God? You are not your own, you were bought at a price. Therefore honor God with your body.” [1 Corinthians. 6:19-20].
The body is too often ignored in the mind, body, and spirit connection. We know the need for a healthy mind and spirit. However, few people consider how the body can act as an anchor to the mind and spirit. Think about how you feel mentally when you are bed ridden with something minor like the flu. Now consider how happy you feel when your body feels healthy and energetic.
God did not design us to be inactive and eat man made foods, treat your body acording to Gods plan and your spirituality will deepen. Start with being a better steward of your health, and watch what happens.
You will have a new body and a new life.
Here’s how it works: Take an honest look at your health habits. If you’re not eating a natural diet; the foods God put on the planet. And are not being physically active, you are not treating your body the way God designed it to be treated. Once you begin doing this you will have a mental and physical transformation.
The physical one is obvious. You will lose weight and become stronger and healthier. The mental disipine comes next. You boost confidence. You increase pride and increase self esteem. You will have more motivation. A biblical diet will create a strong body, mind, and spirit. Here’s why:
When you change poor health habits over to good ones, something amazing is happening. You are experiencing mental disipline. The emotions that govern instant gratification. These are the emotions that tell you be a poor and lazy steward of your body. When you are in control of these emotions, you have created the discipline to accomplish what ever else you set your mind to!
Want to deepen your faith and increase your spirituality? Start with your body. Be grateful God has given you the opportunity to use your body the way He created it to be used. Strengthen your body with proper stewardship and your mind and spirit will follow.
Regardless of your age or personal circumstances, you can have a new body and life.
Only you can give yourself the gift of a new body and new life. This journey will take you places you never dreamed of.
