1 Corinthians 3:16-17 (New International Version)
16Don't you know that you yourselves are God's temple and that God's Spirit lives in you? 17If anyone destroys God's temple, God will destroy him; for God's temple is sacred, and you are that temple.
Let's talk about this. There are so many ways to take care of our bodies. If you were left a temple, knowing it was a place GOD dwells. What would you do? I myself would work hard every day to try to make sure it was perfect. After all, God will be dwelling there. Well the bible says that our body is God's temple and that it is sacred. It states clearly that we are that temple! It is important to take this into consideration. We have to keep our bodies up. We have to do our best to take care of them. This goes with eating for nutrition, exercising regularly, knowing when you need to rest, stop smoking, drinking, etc. Cut out the things that you KNOW harms your body. My personal beliefs is that this passage doesn't just mean your body but your spirit too. Be good to others, treat them how you would want to be treated, have a warm heart.
Well that is my thoughts for the day :) Share this bible verse with someone you care about!!

Lovely! I never really thought about the spirit living in the body. I've always considered the two to be so separate but it is in the body that the spirit lives!
