Do You Want To Be Healthy?

When you get sick, listen.

Your body is telling you to do something.

Sickness is a message that something isn’t right.

Perhaps it’s a call to rest, or to eat less, or to eat more greens, or to breath more deeply, or to get more sun, or to play more, or to worry less, or to laugh more, or to give up heavy emotional burdens, or to forgive, or to take morning walks with your kids, or to get out of a toxic relationship, or to give up sin, or to walk closer with God, or to trust Him more…

Listen to your doctor, yes, but listen also to your entire being.

Listen to your body, your soul, and your spirit.

Ultimately, listen to God’s voice speaking through your body-soul-spirit connection.

The Bible says, If you listen carefully to the voice of the LORD your God and do what is right in his eyes, if you pay attention to his commands and keep all his decrees, I will not bring on you any of the diseases I brought on the Egyptians, for I am the LORD, who heals you. (Exodus 15:26)

You’re not a machine with spare parts.

Your entire being is one.

Your emotions, your thoughts, your beliefs, your attitudes, your imagination—they’re all linked.

Today, stop whatever you’re doing.

And listen.

What is your body-soul-spirit whispering to you now?
