Do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit, who is in you, whom you have received from God? You are not your own; you were bought at a price. Therefore honor God with your body. 1 Corinthians 6:19-20 NIV
Need exercise?
"Like I tell my daughter, we cannot be good in everything. And I don't seem to be that good in physical exercise...yet. My lack of discipline in this area is probably why it took me seven years worth of Sweet Monday before I featured a theme on exercise!! We called it "Sweat Monday." A sweet personal trainer came to our home and shared with all of us the first Monday night of the month how we could get fit in only 30 minutes a day. The constant motivation for all of us in every area of life should be the love of Christ. His words to us are true and when we obey them, we are blessed. We need to allow Him to be our personal trainer in every area of our life - even in taking care of our bodies."
S.P. (Sweet Pea): Today, if possible, intentionally climb all the stairs you come in contact with, or dance with your children, or take the farthest parking space you can find and look up to the sky. Think of how big God is as you walk briskly to your destination.
