Since we are human and we live in a fallen/deadly world we are all subject to sickness in all areas of our life. However, the more whole we become emotionally and spiritually the healthier physically we are more likely to be and vise versa.
"Keep up physically so we can keep up with what God is doing Spiritually."—Told by a friend.
Everything that is going on in the spiritual and physical realm we need to be prepared in all aspects! This is where I realized that being whole isn't just our physical body, our emotional state, or just our spiritual state. They all go hand in hand to be ready for whatever God has called us to do!
I am seriously so excited! I felt like God wanted to challenge me in understanding and growing in these ways a few months ago but I didn't know what that looked like. I met a new friend last month in Thailand and as we were talking about how I am passionate about making people look and feel good about themselves and how I believe every part of your mind, body, spirit is what makes us strong and determines how we live our life differently.
1 Thessalonians 5:23 NIV "May God himself, the God of peace, sanctify you through and through. May your whole spirit, soul and body be kept blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ."
She then told me about a challenge she did with the same things in mind. I was inspired by her then I prayed for God to show me how he wanted to grow. Last month I began waking up at 6AM every morning to spend time with the Lord. Then He put the number "6" in my heart.
So here it is: For 6 weeks I will wake up at 6AM, worship/pray/meditate/and study about 6 different areas of Wholeness that all come together:*spiritual*physical*emotional*mental*heartful*armored
I will do 6 days a week working out my physical body and eating healthy with a rest day (just like God rested on the 7th day)
I know it's not going to be easy, it's going to be a lot of "dying to my flesh" daily, dedication, and discipline but I know this is what He wants me to do right now and I am excited to be sharing my journey with others to inspire! It's letting go of our comforts and ready to be willing to let God show, change, mold us and reveal new things to us. Life and becoming "whole" is not an easy fix, it takes time; more than 6 weeks. This is something we continue our whole life, but what are we going to do about it right now?
I am not going to have an agenda when coming to learn/study/meditate but I know He will show me and speak to me exactly what I need to see, learn and I know it's going to be powerful!
Not sure yet how I'll blog about it, Maybe just sharing a few key points a week on each subject so it's not too much! Either way, let's be obedient to God and willing to let Him teach us, mold us, and challenge us!
