Why am I so passionate about my health and my family’s health? As a follower of Jesus Christ, I believe God calls me to be a good steward of my health and my body. “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.” I Corinthians 6:19, 20 (NIV)
God wants me to take care of my body not only because it is His home but also so I can serve Him to my fullest potential. It is much easier to serve God and my family when I am not sick and tired all the time. The link between my mind, body, and spirit is so important. If I neglect one, the others suffer.
“Do not be wise in your own eyes; fear the LORD and shun evil. This will bring health to your body and nourishment to your bones.” Proverbs 3: 7, 8 (NIV)
