Profitable Training! (part 6 of 14)

Physical exercise helps to keep us HEALTHY. We gain the strength to fight off disease. We also keep the strength to be involved in life. With good health we are able to approach our daily activities with VIM and VIGOR.

Solomon stated the wisdom in these words:
"(7) Be not wise in your own eyes; FEAR THE LORD, and TURN AWAY FROM EVIL. (8) IT WILL BE HEALING TO YOUR FLESH AND REFRESHMENT TO YOUR BONES." ( Proverbs 3:7-8 ESV)

Godliness affects the physical, spiritual, emotional, and intellectual aspects of our life. To sustain the soul we need to exercise godliness. To be spiritually HEALTHY we must retain a focus on spiritual matters and pursue the Will of God. May we allow God and His Word to retain their proper place in our life. In this way we will develop a ZEST for true life.

Have a great day LIVING THE PICTURE OF SPIRITUAL HEALTH!
