The purpose of Devotions for Wellness is to promote good eating habits as we feed our bodies and lose weight, 1 Corthinians 6:19-20 says: Do you not know that your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit, who is in you, you are not your own, you were bought at a price, therefore honor God with your body.
We need to give to God a healthy place to dwell in.
Romans 12:2 says: Do not conform any longer to the pattern of this world. But, be transformed by the renewing of your mind.
Thinking about this verse and applying it to weight issues: What is the pattern of this world? Eating out, eating whatever we want too, when we want to and the amounts we want too. But, the Bible says we need to be transformed, transformed to what? To a new way of thinking, eating and taking care of this body God has given us. We are made in the image of God, in His likeness. Taking care of our bodies is like taking care of God's body (God's body in us) So, how do we do this? By renewing our minds, trying new foods, healthy foods, preparing them in a healthy way, not with all the man made junk that is so prevalent. We need to eat more of the God made foods, and less of the man made foods.
