Today's truth is speaking to me... Laying down and offering up my life daily should be viewed as a form of worship--- something I desire and long for. Although it seems contradictory to immediate wants and ways of thinking that we have grown accustomed to living in a society concerned with looks and pleasure, surrender to God actually yields much fruit.
God is asking me to... make healthy food and exercise decisions. Physical health is very much linked to spirituality. Respecting the bodies He gave us is a starting point to spiritual richness as our bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit.
My challenge is to... stay connected to God's love and mercy through conversation with God, sacrifices, and self-discipline. It is important to remember the phrase, "Against you, you only, have I sinned." Often I get caught up in pleasing people-- continually worrying if I am making others happy when my primary concern should be making God happy. My sins go against the one true God. We should avoid sin because it saddens our loving creator who is the only one deserving of all praise.
