"If you will be a servant to this people, be considerate of their needs and respond with compassion, work things out with them, they'll end up doing anything for you."Let's make you the leader, your body the subject.
Are you a servant to your body?
Do you consider its needs?
Do you respond with compassion?
Do you work things out with it?
Does it want, in return, to do anything for you?
In 2 Chronicles, the king that received that advice shunned it, cast his people into hard labor and forgot the worship and wisdom of God in the process.
We shun the healing properties of whole food, plant-based eating that has been known for centuries.
We cast our bodies into hard labor by overindulging with processed foods and animal proteins.
We invest our bodies' God-designed healing properties into damage control rather than being freed up through wise eating and exercise to pursue God's course for us.
So, alas, it (our body) wants not...to do anything for us. It is too busy breaking down from breaking down what we put in.
We have a weekend to invest in leadership or foolishness. Work things out with your body.
Plan now for a Better Body Monday.
