Romans 12:1 I beseech you therefore brethen, by the mercy of God, that you present your bodies a living sacrifice holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service.
David Jeremiah said that our inward and outer man is important because our physical effects the spiritual and the spiritual effects the physical. Our body is important because it is indwelled by the Holy Spirit and is a gift of God that He uses to do his will. Therefore we should take care of our body. He said that we can choose to wear out, rust out or live out daily. He suggest 3 rules for health and stress release. Seems so simple.
1) regular exercise walk daily.... in biblical times that was the major way of getting around.
2)eating right and no fad diets..there are dietary laws in the Bible that still work today. Find what works for you
3) relaxation and escape...aka hobbies, sports, playtime, reading or what ever helps you chill out. Nature happens to have two very good places to relax, the beach and the mountains. Get outside and rediscover nature. This happens to be one of the resolutions that I have chosen for this year. Thanks to David Jeremiah's radio sermon and apology for any quotes or misquotes. I was listening while I was driving to Florida.
