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; you were bought
at a price. Therefore honor God with your bodies. - 1 Corinthians 6:19-20
A main point brought out in the
post “Honor God with Your Body” is that
our bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit. This truth should govern how we
treat ourselves. We should eat healthy foods, have good sleeping habits, and
exercise to honor God. We should not misuse our body by smoking, drinking,
overeating, or being immoral.
We know much about our physical
bodies as we have eyes to see, ears to hear, a mind to think, and a heart to
pump blood to feed our body the oxygen it needs but do we know much about the
human soul?
The physical body at some point
no longer grows and eventually does not even work. Take inspiration from the
song Oh My Soul by Casting Crowns.
God has provided a way to lay down our burdens like worry and anger. A way to
receive peace and joy. A way to make sure our soul continues to grow and last
forever.
