God wants you to take care of your body – God wants you to take care of yourself!

God wants you to take care of your body – God wants you to take care of yourself!

“Or do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit within you, whom you have from God? You are not your own, for you were bought with a price. So glorify God in your body.” ~ 1 Corinthians 6:19-20, ESV

Dear Friends, God wants you to take care of yourself.
God wants you to take care of your body!

Why should you take care of your body and your health?

When you take care of your body, you are taking care of God’s temple!

When you take care of yourself, you are being a good witness for Christ – please remember, you are the light of the world! We are representatives of Jesus!

When we take care of our bodies, we are being good stewards of what God has given us…
Taking care of your body is a beautiful expression of gratitude to God!

When you take care of yourself, you’ll have more energy, and you’ll be better equipped to do whatever God has called you to do, becoming who God created you to be!

Dear Friends, God does not want you working too much, burning the candle at both ends, constantly stressed out, trying to do everything while ignoring your own health and well being!

Taking care of yourself is not selfish. Taking care of your body is not “carnal.” – Taking care of your body brings honor and glory to God!

3 John 1:2, NIV Dear friend, I pray that you may enjoy good health and that all may go well with you, even as your soul is getting along well.

So, Dear Friends, please take care of yourself, your physical health, your mental and emotional health. Take care of your family and make them a priority in life. Please value what you have, and intentionally and thankfully enjoy what you have while you have it! And whatever you do, Don’t burn out! Get lots of rest, take time to enjoy God’s blessings and to spend quality time with your family and friends. Do your best and leave the rest to God… God is able, and God’s got your back! 🙂
