Our Body our Temple


Do you not know that your bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit,

who is in you, whom you have received from God?

1 Corinthians 6:19-20 NIV

            Yes, we own our temple, and it needs constant maintenance. Those who know me are expecting a dialog regarding diet and exercise. As an octogenarian, those are important. But being a happy elder is all about the Spirit.

            Many octogenarians are angry, and I do not mean unhappy. Life is not perfect, and how we deal with negativity makes the difference. Yes, in aging, we lose capabilities and hopefully taper into our “end of life experience.” As Christians, I plead with you to be elderly and happy. Let your family remember your smile and your laugh.

            Thought for Today: Let’s do what we need to be happy.

            Prayer For Today: We Pray that as we approach our end on earth, people will remember us as grateful and happy stewards of our Christian faith.
