Mark 6:31 And he said unto them, Come ye yourselves apart into a desert place, and rest a while: for there were many coming and going, and they had no leisure so much as to eat.
[6] Get sufficient rest and time for recovery. Here is where many persons fall short, because in many cases we may not get sufficient rest at night. The habit of staying up late to watch this or that show, can, and will reverse much of your efforts at leading a healthy lifestyle. Successful weight loss in particular is closely tied to getting sufficient sleep, as is proper recovery after doing your exercises.
Remember the three amigos will get to you if you let them, therefore a holistic approach to health will be needed if persons desire success. In closing, there is a tendency to slow down your exercise, and movements as you get older, but the opposite should be done, for you need to exercise and get moving, the older you get. You will want to play with your grand kids, and yes, you will want to live life to the full.
Most of all, as Christians we should do everything to the glory of God, meaning that the issue of exercise should translate into long years of service to God, in the building up of His kingdom, for The Lord is well pleased if persons can avoid aborted service in His cause on account of health issues. This isn’t always possible, but every Christian should work diligently towards that end, for it leads us to consider the last passage with which we will close.
Psalms 91: 16 With long life will I satisfy him, and shew him my salvation.
May The Lord add His blessing to the study of His word. God bless!
