| Yesterday Afternoon's Bible Study |
"Research has shown that only about 4 percent of the population has no health problems. As a society, we are not very good at taking care of ourselves. We work too hard and rest too little. We overindulge when we should be cutting back. Many people have vices that they allow to affect their health even though they are aware of the consequences.
In 1 Corinthians 6, Paul reminds people in the Corinthian church that their bodies are not their own. Our Creator God crafted our human form in His likeness. He has given us the know-how and ability to treat our bodies as something special.
This Scripture says that we are a "temple of the Holy Ghost." Rather than just just living for ourselves and our own purposes, we should live for the knowledge that the Holy Spirit dwells in us.
When we are tempted to sin, we should be mindful that our bodies are meant to bring glory to God, not to fulfill our sinful desires. Our inner self is a sacred, holy place where God lives."

God has made us stewards of everything we possess that He has given to us. It's our responsibility to give everything back to God. He is the owner, and we are the caretakers.
We were purchased for a very high price through the sacrifice of Jesus on the cross. It's a privilege to honor Him in how we live and welcome His Spirit in our lives.
