Physical Wholeness

Our bodies have now become the Bethlehem of Jesus. Jesus lives in us and takes up residence within." (Oswald Chambers)

Could it be that our bodies reflect more accurately what we believe than our actual words? How serious are you about your physical health? Is it an issue that matters only to you? Roy Oswald says, "I take care of myself, not only for my sake, or in gratitude for the life given me by God, but also for the sake of others."

I Corinthians 6:18-20 asks this piercing question: "Don't you realize that your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit, who lives in you and was given to you by God? You do not belong to yourself, for God bought you with a high price. So you must honor God with your body." (NLT)
