You Are the Children of God

Listen to the Audio

Yesterday my wife and I were talking about how people experience true change and transformation in their lives. She has worked with people on their health for as long as I have, and we both came to the conclusion that so much of true lasting change comes from a change of heart and our identity. Much of our daily decision making comes down to who we see ourselves to be. 

As I was thinking about this I came across Deuteronomy 14:1 this morning where God tells the people, " You are the children of God," and then God goes on to tell them ways that children of God live. But before he showed them what to do, he reinforced who they were. 

Today's communion is a time of gratitude that we are children of God. And we are asking God to help us walk in our identity as His children and for him to teach us how to do so. 

Today's Workout/Health Tip

A change of heart and our identity play a big role in our health. Seeing ourselves as people who eat right, and exercise is the start of real lasting transformation. Most of the external rules about what to eat and how to exercise only produce temporary fixes that don't truly last. We are children of God who honor, nourish, and care for our bodies as God's temple. 

I am praying for you.
