Wellness

The state of being in good health, especially as an actively pursued goal.

Friday is here Champions! May your day be bright and beautiful! May your steps be strong and productive as you embark on the journey of today! Mind, body and spirit!

Wellness is our topic this morning. This one is made up of many components. I have often looked at the human body as a container. What we fill it with, determines what it will overflow with. Good stuff in, good stuff out. Bad stuff in, bad stuff out. Our bodies were created in the image of Almighty God! So many intricate parts. We are told our bodies are temples. How are we taking care of our temple? I have to be honest here, I have left my temple unattended at times. By making the wrong choices concerning diet, exercise, rest and spiritual nutrition.

It's a balance. When one of those components are missing, my body doesn't function as it was created to be. How about yours? Keeping it real here. You might say physically, I can't do this or that. Understood. If you can't run, walk.If you can't walk crawl, and if you can't crawl keep moving in a forward progression. A body in motion stays in motion. Keeping our minds fixed on things above, not on the nasty now and now is paramount to our spiritual wellness. Being in the word of God!

Then there's this thing that fuels our bodies, physical food! I can only speak for myself here, I have not always made the best choices when it comes to my food intake and when I don't, my body knows it.

I encourage you today to stop for a moment and ask yourself, as I have done...Am I doing the best I can to take care of my temple!

Champions, this is the vehicle we have that is going to transport us while we are here on earth. Is it time for a tune up? Keep moving today, one step at a time in a forward progression! Be blessed and then be a blessing!

Do you not know that your bodies are temples 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 bodies.
