I have been ill for the last week. Allergies combined with a sinus infection
have had me running on empty most of the week.
Since I am on the upswing in regaining my physical health through
exercise and weight loss I have noticed that illness does not impact me as
deeply. I am not well yet but talking
about my illness with a colleague got around to talking about my core strength.
This is something talked about often by exercise enthusiasts
and I see the importance of it. It got
me pondering what my core really is. If
I am not centered on Christ and his place in my life then no amount of physical
strength will help me. If Christ is not
the center of all that I try to be then no physical, emotional, or social centering
will help me.
It takes me back to the realization that there are truly no secular
issues. Everything is God’s whether we
accept that or not. We do not vote God
in or give him permission. If Christ and
his love for everyone is not my driving force then I cannot be centered or have
a strong core. I find that when I manage
to see things through this perspective I am much more at peace. I am much more successful. I am stronger.
Wishing you joy in the journey,

Mat 13:52 So Jesus said to them, "That is why every writer
who has become a disciple of Christ’s rule of the universe is like a home
owner. He liberally hands out new and old things from his great treasure
store."
