Help God Help You: Be Health Conscious
Written by: Phillip Shobo
Hello everybody. I just want to take this opportunity to enlighten or remind us that as we exercise our life in Christ spiritually we should exercise our life physically as well. This body we have isn’t our own it belongs to God so we should take heart that we take care of it accordingly (1 Cor. 6:19) I came across a video that can inform and help us to do just that. Highlighted in the video are 8 laws we can adhere to keep our bodies healthy
- Nutrition – a vegetarian diet is the best way to lose weight and to keep it off decreases disease and it’s more economical
- Exercise—important for physical and mental health; increases blood circulation, lowers heart rate and blood pressure, and controls appetite
- Water—drink 8-10 glasses a day, kidneys are very dependent on water to filter out unwanted products
- Sunshine—healing agent that forms Vitamin D and destroys virus and bacteria; early morning or late afternoon to avoid burning
- Temperance—avoid things that are detrimental to spiritual and physical health; Eclessiastes 3
- Air—improves oxidation of blood when fresh air is breathed regularly
- Rest-adequate hours replenishes cells with energy;
- TRUST IN THE LORD—Isaiah 40:31
Below are the videos with more in-depth information. You may not agree with every point made, but it does raise some thought provoking questions. Please view when you have time and share with your friends and family.
Good words Brandon. As temples of the living God we need to take care of the whole.person. God Bless! Mike
Great post Phillip. Still working on that area day by day.
