Life is a journey. It has highs and lows. But through it all God is with you and beckons you to not give up.
Throughout the Bible we see many instances of triumphs and struggle, and sometimes the desire to quit. To get out of the game. It’s too hard, too demanding, too difficult. Let’s just throw in the towel.
Take Jonah for example. He did NOT want to go to Ninevah and share God’s offering of repentance and forgiveness. He wanted to quit. To give up. To turn his back on God. But a whole nation of people would not have been saved if He did not continue following God’s command and doing what he had been called to do anyway. But it wasn’t easy.
Any large feat in our lives–be it professional, emotional or physical–requires an attitude of perseverance. Of not giving in until we see it through.
The same can be said for our health. If we’re set on conquering a goal or seeing a different picture in the mirror, to be proud of our accomplishment and to feel better on the inside, that victory does not come without effort and continual dedication.
>> Final thought: I encourage you today to get re-connected with any goals, dreams or desires you’ve put by the wayside. Things you feel deep inside you’d like to accomplish or achieve, but haven’t yet made it, or even decided to quit some while back. God wants you to to be victorious. To better fulfill his calling and purpose on your life. And your health is interconnected in your ability to do so.
Make today a new day. To get back up, reset your focus and take the next step toward achieving it. #youreworthit

The perfect balance to meet your needs–inside and out.
It’s awesome when things come in pairs. It makes it easy to remember and easy to digest (no pun intended). 😉
Let’s start with the easiest: food. Our bodies function at their best when they’re given high quality, whole food. Just as God intended–hence why He created them! 😉
For our bodies, we need to have a balance of whole food providing us nutrients, fiber and healthy fat (aka beneficial oils.) Try pairing these things together this week:
- Tomatoes and avocado
- Cucumber or carrots and olives
- Butternut squash and almonds
- Sweet potato and pecans
- Apple and walnuts
For our spiritual health–equally as important to be mindful of–try pairing these together:
- Grace and Forgiveness
- Mercy and Love
- Empathy and Compassion
- Obedience and Faith
- Kind-heartedness and Joy
It’s easy to throw around these terms and to read them in our Bible or even to study them, but to be truly mindful of practicing them can be a different story…
>> Final thought: Pick one pairing from each category (body and soul) and take action on it as soon as possible–even now if you can. See what other perfect pairings you can begin to spot all around you. The most perfect of all is that God chose to pair himself with you.
A more perfect pair could never have been made. 😉 You are loved.
