Self Care is Hard Work

 

1 Corinthians 6:19-20 (MSG) Didn’t you realize that
your body is a sacred place, the place of the Holy Spirit?  Don’t you see that you can’t live however you
please, squandering what God paid such a high price for?  The physical part of you is not some piece of
property belonging to the spiritual part of you.  God owns the whole works.  So let people see God in and through your
body.

 

 
Self care is hard work!
 
Unlike many that align with the calendar year, our health
insurance plan renews April 1st. 
I’m a thrifty New Englander and don’t take care of myself if it costs
money.  So when we met our deductible, the
whistle blew to start the race for medical self-care before the 4/1 finish line.  Ready, set, GO!
 
No worries!  I’ve
simply joined a gym and the medical care is all non-essential, but good for me
and long overdue.  Between appointments and
exercise, time for writing is scarce.  I exercise
to praise music, read daily scripture and blessings that arrive by email, but
haven’t shared with you.
 
Until I find a good balance or April 1st rolls around,
you can subscribe to Bible Gateway’s Verse
of the Day
or another faith blog. 
Some of my favorites include:
Lori Roeleveld’s Disturber of Hobbits,
Susie Larson’s Daily
Blessings
,
Holley Gerth’s Coffee for
Your Heart
,
Holly Barrett’s The Big Red Sofa and Testimony Tuesday,
Ken Weliever’s The
Preacher’s Word
,
 
What’s your favorite faith blog?  Please share in the comment section!
 
Like a productive garden, a rich
relationship should be tended regularly.
