Exercise the body, mind and spirit


We have been having crazy internet issues at home.  Sorry for the delay.  Remember that these "moments" are from 2009!

December 10

Favorite moment of the day:  dancing for 2 hours learning a new danceline routine…just for the fun of it.  It was great but I’ll pay for it tomorrow.

“For bodily exercise profits a little, but godliness is profitable for all things…”  1 Timothy 4:8                 

I’m not as young as I used to be so when I exercise or dance, I usually end with sore muscles and the urge to never do it again.  But I have to take care of my mind, soul and body in order to continue my walk with Jesus.  It’s not enough to just read and study the word of God.  We are called to take care of our bodies while we are on this earth. That means we must eat right, exercise and avoid harmful toxins that can poison our bodies, which in turn can poison our minds.  We need to fight the temptations that are all around and take care of the bodies we are given.   When we exercise, it can make us feel better and have more energy, less likely to be depressed, and, therefore, can have a positive effect on our relationship with God.
