A Lifetime Commitment

Real health is never a three-month change, no matter how many online influencers and companies sell quick transformations. It is a lifetime commitment.

We read many experiences where a diet (pick your poison) helps people lose weight only to discover a year later the weight that once was lost now was found.

How many people have you met who have prayed “the prayer” after a sermon asking Jesus into their heart and yet whose life has not changed?

Good health, as far as genes and environment permit, requires a lifetime commitment lived fully a day at a time. Eat real food (not super processed manufactured stuff), not too much, mostly plants. Exercise including some form of resistance training.

Good spiritual health is similar. Maybe you have that moment where you decide to become a follower of Jesus. Good. But now a lifetime commitment lived fully a day at a time. Study the New Testament and other spiritual writing, practice serving other people, gather with others regularly.
