Be in Health


Having experienced health issues in the last decade, I am so thankful and blessed that the Lord of the Universe chose to use me and my circumstances as a witness to others! I have been able to share my testimony and encourage friends, family and co-workers to be concerned with making positive choices in their eating and exercise habits.

Your body is a gift, a holding place for the Spirit of the Lord once you accept Jesus Christ as your Savior. Out of respect and adoration and thankfulness to Him, we should do our best to be aware of how we treat our bodies. They appreciate regularity! So forming good habits is necessary as we walk this earth.

My chiropractor told me about the Be in Health conference that he and his wife attended. It made a huge difference in their marriage dynamics and they gained much knowledge to apply upon their return.

I have yet to read the book in the image above, but I look forward to it. Here is a web site link to the Be in Health organization - http://www.beinhealth.com/public/programs/whatweoffer

Here are excerpts from the Holy Bible, New International Translation, that mentions the body as a temple.

John 2:13-25
Jesus Clears the Temple Courts

13 When it was almost time for the Jewish Passover, Jesus went up to Jerusalem. 14 In the temple courts he found people selling cattle, sheep and doves, and others sitting at tables exchanging money. 15 So he made a whip out of cords, and drove all from the temple courts, both sheep and cattle; he scattered the coins of the money changers and overturned their tables. 16 To those who sold doves he said, “Get these out of here! Stop turning my Father’s house into a market!” 17 His disciples remembered that it is written: “Zeal for your house will consume me.”

18 The Jews then responded to him, “What sign can you show us to prove your authority to do all this?”

19 Jesus answered them, “Destroy this temple, and I will raise it again in three days.”

20 They replied, “It has taken forty-six years to build this temple, and you are going to raise it in three days?” 21 But the temple he had spoken of was his body. 22 After he was raised from the dead, his disciples recalled what he had said. Then they believed the scripture and the words that Jesus had spoken.

23 Now while he was in Jerusalem at the Passover Festival, many people saw the signs he was performing and believed in his name. 24 But Jesus would not entrust himself to them, for he knew all people. 25 He did not need any testimony about mankind, for he knew what was in each person.

1 Corinthians 6:19-20

New International Version (NIV)
19 Do you not know that your bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit, who is in you, whom you have received from God? You are not your own; 20 you were bought at a price. Therefore honor God with your bodies.
