The life and trials of a growing Christian - Day Eighty Six

My wife and I have decided to start a new way of eating (not a diet) and living (not exorcizing) tomorrow. We have gotten (a little, OK a lot) out of shape and it's time to start doing something to change it for the better. It's probably going to be difficult thing to do but I know we can do it. There are a lot of people in the world trying to get their bodies into shape, which is a great thing, but I wonder how many are worried about getting their spirits into shape. If I end up with a body like a rock and a spirit like a jellyfish where has that gotten me? Nowhere! It's wonderful to want to be healthy but we can't deny our spiritual life, after all, that's what we're going to be after we shed our bodies and go into eternity. So, as we try to get more physically fit, we will also exercise our spirits as well. More bible reading, more prayer, more doing for others, that's a good start.
