DETERMINE WHAT IS IMPORTANT
|
"But seek ye first the kingdom of God and His righteousness and all these things will be added unto you."
Matthew 6:33 (KJV)
Today's Focus: Health and Nutrition
So many people get caught up in whether a total vegetable diet or one that includes meat is best for our bodies. Whether you are a vegetarian or whether you indulge in meat, God has given us every moving thing - meat and green plants - to eat (Gen. 9:3). God wants us to enjoy food, but he does not want us to abuse our bodies. Food should be enjoyed; it should nourish us and be used as another form of ministry by bringing together families and friends for fellowship. Whatever we eat or drink, we should first be mindful to give thanks to God. Remember that our bodies are the temple of the Holy Spirit; that we were bought with a price and that we should always glorify Him in everything we do - including what we eat.
Today's Thought: My body is the temple of the Holy Spirit. I will intentionally take care of my body by eating well.
Today's Prayer:
"
Father, I am not my own. I am yours and was bought with a price. Help me to choose the right things to eat so I can glorify you."
