Health and Consequences
I saw an ad for the American Heart Association today:
“Eat right. Exercise. Don’t smoke – and live.”
Hate to break it to them, but if you do all that, what’s actually going to happen is that you will die just like everyone else. Sure, you might be healthier – you certainly will be less healthy if you eat poorly, don’t exercise, and smoke like a chimney – but you might still become gravely unhealthy anyway, and you most definitely will still die.
Taking care of our bodies is a responsibility; but health was made for man, not man for health; and that in the end death comes anyway. In light of that inevitability, spiritual health is far more important. So my advice is,
"Eat Christ's Body. Pray. Don't Sin -- and live forever."
