Physical Health/Spiritual Health

Greetings,
 
There is much talk today about health.  Most every one of us is concerned about our physical condition. When we are young we want to look healthy, but when we are middle-age to elderly, we want to be healthy. 
 
If you want to keep the health of Christ, keep away from certain things; like away from all spiritual infections, from all heart wounds and irritations. One hour of worry will wear out more vitality than a week of work; one minute of malice or jealousy or envy will hurt more than a drink of poison. Pleasantness of spirit and joyousness of heart are essential to full health. Quietness of spirit, gentleness, tranquility and the peace of God that passes all understanding are worth more than all the sleeping pills in the country.

We do not wonder that some people have poor health when we hear them talk for half an hour. They have enough dislikes, prejudices, doubts and fears to exhaust the strongest constitution.

My friend, if you would maintain God's life and strength, keep out the things that kill it. Keep yourself for Him and for His work, and you will find enough and to spare.
 
"The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly."  John 10:10
 
Be happy in Jesus today, and remember that you are loved!!!
