Feeling more than a wee bit fragile lately.
I have been so busy, I haven’t taken the best care of myself… like I have been using regular versus the best quality gas.
You can have a great car, and cause it to break down over time by giving it an inferior type of gas. The car will run for a while, then as it has a harder time ‘digesting’ the lesser quality fuel, it will begin to show wear and tear.
Eventually it will stop going.
We too need to have the best fuel we can to help keep our bodies healthy and our minds fit.
Most of the time when we don’t take care of ourselves, we are struggling with an emotional issue. And that is so with me.
It has been a hard winter/spring for me with several injuries, too much work, not enough rest time and I haven’t been giving myself the best fuel to do so.
Part of the fuel process involves not letting our engine become overheated.
Not eating the healthiest, not keeping up with my water intake and not being able to regularly exercise has led me to be very down in the dumps lately.
But there is another layer I need to make sure I am adding for my success, beside eating healthily, drinking enough water and staying fit.
My spiritual self is designed to be provided and cared for, when I invite His Presence to minister to me, guide me and keep me safe from all harm.
You can do all the necessary ground preparations; but without the right air support you will not win the battle.
If God is for us, we need to take that seriously & make sure we are drawing close to Him daily, and staying under His protective wings.
- Eat well.
- Stay hydrated.
- Sleep enough.
- Get active.
- Read His Word.
- Worship.
- Pray about what’s on your heart.
- Forgive often.
- Love more.
- Do something you love just because.
- Live your life without regrets.
Let God love up on you, and show you how to properly care for yourself.
If its in His word, its on His heart. He is and will be more than enough for all our needs!
