Faith
can become the key to wellness When we link our beliefs to our fitness
goals, we can have the motivation to` make changes. Beliefs are the most
powerful motivational tools you have. The Bible tells us the body is
truly the temple of God. “What? Know you not that your body is the
temple of the Holy Spirit which is in you, which you have of God and you
are not your own? For you are bought with a price: therefore glorify God
in your body, and in your spirit, which are God’s” (1 Corinthians
9:19-20, NIV). This scripture clearly reveals that your body does not
belong to you. God created your body in His likeness. He breathed the
breath of life into it, and He paid a great price in proving His love
for you. Christians are to become good stewards of their bodies. A
steward is a supervisor who manages an estate or property for someone
else. God expects us to properly care for His temple. He expects us to
protect our bodies, eat well, exercise and practice spiritual
stewardship.
