Dec 11 – Bodily Exercise and Godliness

Without a doubt, a sedentary life style is detrimental to health. The governments of many provinces are encouraging active living. Not surprisingly, we often see walkers and joggers. But though government leaders can advertise and encourage, ultimately it is the responsibility of the individual to look after his or her physical well-being. And so it is in reference to our spiritual health. The Bible speaks of taking care of our physical health but says that by comparison, it is more important to look after our spiritual health. The book of Timothy says, “… bodily exercise profits a little, but godliness is profitable for all things, having promise of the life that now is and of that which is to come.” And as with our physical well-being, so the decision to be spiritually healthy is an individual choice. Remember please that you and I are going to live somewhere forever. God has done His part by giving His Son. Now the choice is ours. “Whosoever will may come.”
