one body

Today is a new day, but this body I am sitting in is the only one I get on this earth and there is a lot God has for me to do. Do I treat his gift with respect? Not often enough if I’m being honest. What choices will keep me alert and healthy so I have the mental alertness to recognize the needs of those around me, and the physical strength to follow through? Growing in my faith means consuming more than coffee… and growing my muscles too.
