My Temple

Or do you not know that your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit who is in you, whom you have from God, and you are not your own?
1 Cor 6:19-20

Ok I know that this passage is talking about sexual sins, but it made me think about how I was treating my temple. To be honest I have not treated it very well. Life as a youth pastor wife can be stressful and extremely busy. It is easy to put everything else first, but when I think of it as the temple of the Holy Spirit -- it makes me sad. Sad that I have put him is a shabby house. A couple of weeks ago at my day job we had a health fair. At the health fair, there was a booth where they weighted you and got other stats. Below were mine:

  • Weight 164
  • BodyFat 42.5
  • Muscle 24.7
  • Visceral Fat: 7
  • BMI: 28


not so good! So I have a new quest to add all the other things that I am doing.... 6 months I want better stats. Not sure what the goal is yet, but I will keep you informed. I have added my fitness calendar to the site also. It's all about accountability.

Life is so busy I think the objective is how to fit small chunks of working out throughout the day. In addition, add more veggies to my day.

Today wrap-up:

  • Started the day with abs workout – Yeah!
  • Drove 1 hour to work
  • Worked 8 hrs
  • Drove 1 hour home
  • Worked in Outreach room at Church (did sprints from room to church office)
  • When food shopping (walked aisles quickly)
  • Made and eat dinner around 8:30
  • Finished up Next weeks devo for teen (Between days did line jumps)
  • Wrote in blog (while husband reads to me the skit we will do at youth group tomorrow
  • Took shower and went to bed!

Not as much working out as I want but it is a start.
