No Spiritual Flabbiness!!!
by Cherise Gause
“Have nothing to do with godless myths and old wives’ tales; rather, train yourself to be godly.
For physical training is of some value, but godliness has value for all things, holding promise for
both the present life and the life to come. This is a trustworthy saying that deserves full acceptance.
That is why we labor and strive, because we have put our hope in the living God, who is the Savior of
all people, and especially of those who believe.” 1 Timothy 4:7-10 NIV Paul, the Apostle is telling
Timothy who he is mentoring that yes, working out is important; however, excercising daily in God
is even more important. Just like our physical muscles need to be exercised to staytoned and strong
we need to exercise our “spiritual muscles”, so that we don’t become spiritually weak. You can not
expect to look good physically if you do not take care of yourself by eating right and proper exercise.
You can not wish a good physique into being. In similar fashion we can not sleep on the Bible and
expect to absorb its knowledge. It takes reading it and studying it to know what is inside. A spiritual
workout routine (Core Workouts):
1. Spend time reading the Bible.
2. Spend time in prayer.
Amen!
