I'm having a lot of problems with my wrist, so I'll just be posting scriptures that speak to my heart the most from my Bible reading, and sometimes write a little bit about what God is teaching me through these scriptures.
Ezek 22:26 Her priests have violated my law, and have profaned mine holy things: they have put no difference between the holy and profane, neither have they shewed difference between the unclean and the clean, and have hid their eyes from my sabbaths, and I am profaned among them. KJV
Christians are supposed to be holy. We shouldn't let our bodies be defiled by the disregarding of the importance of eating for good health or by not caring how unhealthy something we're eating is.
Prov 21:10 The soul of the wicked desireth evil: his neighbour findeth no favour in his eyes. KJV
Taking good care of your body so you'll be able to be of help, in whatever way you can, to whoever God puts in your path, is one way of showing favor to your neighbors.
Prov 21:17 He that loveth pleasure shall be a poor man: he that loveth wine and oil shall not be rich. KJV
This is one important reason to not love pleasure.
Prov 21:20 There is treasure to be desired and oil in the dwelling of the wise; but a foolish man spendeth it up. KJV
In the life and home of a Christian whose life glorifies God, there is treasure, which is even valuable in promoting God's kingdom. We should remember this and live like it.
Prov 21:25 The desire of the slothful killeth him; for his hands refuse to labour. KJV
It's senseless to not labor to do good things God puts in our hearts to do, as well as all the necessary things that are so helpful in day to day life.
Psalms 145: 7 They shall abundantly utter the memory of thy great goodness, and shall sing of thy righteousness. 8 The Lord is gracious, and full of compassion; slow to anger, and of great mercy. 9 The Lord is good to all: and his tender mercies are over all his works. 10 All thy works shall praise thee, O Lord; and thy saints shall bless thee. 11 They shall speak of the glory of thy kingdom, and talk of thy power; 12 To make known to the sons of men his mighty acts, and the glorious majesty of his kingdom. KJV
