A sound heart is life
to the body. Proverbs 14:30
Being in sales and trying to maintain proper health has been
and is still an ongoing struggle for me.
On any given week, I am eating lunch with prospects, clients, and
insurance carrier representatives several days during normal business
hours. In the evenings, Alicia and I
normally don't eat dinner until after both boys have gone to bed which is
during prime-time now that the sun sets later in the evenings during the spring
and summer.
I am committed to exercising every single day, but often, I
feel that I am only exercising to prevent myself from gaining a bunch of
weight. Since Easter, I committed to
eating lighter and making wiser choices and the results have been remarkable in
a very short period of time. I feel
healthier, I have more energy, and I have been more focused-due to a healthier
diet. (Not to mention, I have shed a few pounds along the way.)
Most Christians understand the harmful effects from
partaking in certain substances, drinking too much, or smoking, but often
overlook the benefits of maintain a healthy lifestyle by eating a well-balanced
diet and exercising. God commands us to
love ourselves which means that we are to do nothing that will bring harm to
our bodies.
