Good Medicine...
"Above all else, guard your heart, for it is the wellspring of life." Proverbs 4:23
"A heart at peace gives life to the body, but envy rots the bones." Proverbs 14:30
"A cheerful heart is good medicine." Proverbs 17:22
"So don't be anxious about tomorrow. God will take care of your tomorrow too. Live one day at a time." Matthew 6:34
"Do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit, Who is in you, Whom you have received from God ... So use every part of your body to give glory back to God..."
1 Corinthians 6:19-20
"...By His wounds you have been healed." 1 Peter 2:24
…Is God as concerned about your physical health as He is about your spiritual health? References to health and health related issues are mention more than 100 times in the Bible. The word “heart” is mentioned roughly between 700 – 900 times depending on the translation. So what’s the bottom line? 3 John 1:2 sums it up best: "...I pray that you may enjoy good health and that all may go well with you, even as your soul is getting along well." As we head into the winter season why not make it a family project to do a Bible study on the subject of health. You may be surprised the beneficial wisdom you find.
