Food for Thought – Literally

Meditation Thought: “…present your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable to God, which is your spiritual worship.” (Romans 12:1)

As you can learn to bring health by proper nutrition, so you can learn to bring health by proper spiritual food. You ae ‘wonderfully made” (Psalm 139) – many interrelated and interacting parts, which need to be kept in good working order. Sin would rob you of the best health of body, mind and spirit.

By the sacrifice of choosing what is healthy instead of choosing what is appealing at that moment, you bring the blessing of the peace of a healthy body, mind and spirit. The healthy foods are listed in your ‘instructional handbook’ (Bible): read it every day that your choice of all the foods may be healthy!

“Brain-wash” yourself with the Word, for this kind of cleansing of old sinful thoughts will purify your mind and renew it with the thoughts of the Father being fed into it. His thoughts prompt actions which are within His will and acting in His will is the presentation of a holy body to Him as sacrifice. And His will is infinitely more healthy, more desirable, more rewarding to you than your own will.
