August 18 Are You a Snacker

Are you someone who likes to snack through the day? A new study found that eating a snack of baby carrots just three times a week allows for a lower risk of chronic diseases such as heart disease and certain cancers. This is great news if you like baby carrots because having this snack could potentially help a person live longer. Did you know the bible speaks of not simply living longer but rather at the end of this life being with God for eternity, having everlasting life. It is shared about in John 3:16 which reads, “For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.

August 15 Weather Related Killer

Fox News medical contributor Janette Nesheiwat issued a warning regarding the number one weather related killer. Do you know what it is? Heat is the number one weather related killer and a person would be wise to address this reality by not being exposed to too much heat and drinking lots of water in the summer. Did you know the Bible has a warning for all of us. We read in Romans 6:23, “The wages of sin is death” and that warning is very concerning, meaning eventual separation from God. Thankfully in that same verse we read that “the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.” Here the Bible not only provides the warning but also the way to address the warning.

Do not swim out too far 2. There is safety in numbers 3. Avoid shiny jewelry and bright colored bathing suits 4. Swim in the ocean during the day rather than at night.

August 8 Lawn Cutting

Summer is a wonderful time of year. Something that is connected with summer that is not so wonderful is lawn cutting. The grass just keeps growing and growing and if a person is not on top of it the result is a mess. Did you know there is instruction given in the Bible for a person who is a follower of Jesus Christ in regard to keeping on top of something that if not addressed just keeps building and building. It has to do with addressing sin that keeps accumulating. 1 John 1:9 reads, If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.

August 6 BBQ

Having a bbq is so enjoyable in the summer and then comes the best part, eating. The bible has some direction in relation to eating that is interesting to ponder. It reads in 1 Corinthians 10:31, Therefore, whether you eat or drink, or whatever you do, do all to the glory of God. A question could be asked how do you do this? Well, another passage sheds light on this, Acts 17:25 which reads, He gives to all life, breath, and all things. We can eat food to the glory of God by recognizing the very taste buds we have, that allow us to enjoy the food we eat, were designed by an awesome God. Something to ponder!

August 4 Breakfast on the Farm

Recently an event was hosted by G. Visser and Sons in Vernon Bridge, PEI called Breakfast on a Farm. Guests who attended the event were treated to a locally sourced breakfast. It was a unique opportunity for farmers, visitors and Islanders to share a meal and have a conversation about food and successful farming practices. Did you know the bible gives instruction on the best practice available regarding not farming but spiritual growth? In the book of Hosea it reads, “Sow for yourselves righteousness; Reap in mercy; Break up your fallow ground, For it is time to seek the LORD, Till He comes and rains righteousness on you.

August 1 High Risk

CNN shared an article regarding a study that noted people who develop prediabetes when they are younger are likely to have a higher risk of dementia in later life. Did you the Bible tells us there is something that all of humanity is not simply at risk of developing but actually has? Romans 3:23 reads, “for all have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God.” Thankfully the treatment for our sin has been made available and is accessible through the person of Jesus Christ. Romans 6:23 reads, For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.”

July 30 Running

CTV put out an article entitled running through middle age can help keep brain healthy and neurons wired. Apparently continuing to get your exercise as you age helps keep your brain working better. In the bible in the book of Philippians, the writer Paul addresses other followers of Jesus Christ by sharing something that relates to running that he is moving towards. He writes, “Brethren, I do not count myself to have apprehended; but one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind and reaching forward to those things which are ahead, I press toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus.”

July 28 Leg Muscle

According to research presented from the Heart Failure Scientific Congress, having a higher level of leg muscle strength appears to be “strongly associated” with a lower risk of developing a heart failure after a heart attack. So, in essence, if you had a heart attack it might be wise to join a gym. Did you know the Bible speaks about strengthening ones legs? This was shared about 600 years before the coming of Jesus. It reads, “Strengthen the weak hands, and make firm the feeble knees, say to those who are fearful-hearted, “be strong, do not fear! Behold your God will come with vengeance, with the recompense of God; He will come and save you.”
