This week our challenge is to connect with God on a new level. Something I have been doing to help with this is to have a journal by my side while reading my Proverb every morning and taking notes. Yesterday I was reading Proverbs 3 and verses 7-8 really stood out. Here is what they say...

Proverbs 3:7-8 -Be not wise in your own eyes; fear the LORD and shun evil. 8 This will bring healing to your body and refreshment to your bones.…

This verse reminds me of James 4:7 which says, "Submit to God, resist the devil, and he will flee from you." Step one is to fear the Lord, which means to honor and have reverence for him. Then we can resist or shun evil, and it will bring healing to our body. 

Today's communion is a time of gratitude for having God in our life and that he can bring healing to our bodies. And we are asking him to help us walk out fearing him and shunning evil in our lives so that it brings healing to our bodies and refreshment to our bones. 

Today's Health/Fitness Tip

Our focus is connecting with God this week. Let's use our workouts as a time to connect with him. Practice being more present with him in your workouts this week. 

I am praying for you.
