Eat Wisely

I AM GRATEFUL that God gives me wisdom to eat rightly AND provides healthy, creative outlets for my energy.

Even with the increasing interest in mind over matter, how often do we neglect to use our mind to help us exercise proper care in feeding our physical body?

Inappropriate eating habits cause fatigue and tiredness. Unwise choices can make us overweight or underweight and lead to physical and emotional problems. The body is often used to mechanically dispose of food, especially when we eat out of frustration, or as a result unused bottled-up energy, commonly termed nervous energy. Instead of desecrating the body temple, let us use it for constructive purposes so that we enjoy a sense of accomplishment and better health as well.

Guard carefully what you put into your body. Whatever you do eat, be sure to bless it first. If it is blessed, it will go into building strength and vitality, and you will find your habits changing so that you eat the right amounts of whatever is best for you.

Jesus said to them, “Come and eat breakfast!” None of the disciples dared inquire of him, “Who are you?” knowing that it was the Lord. (John 21:12)
