The five spiritual food groups
Some days I get overwhelmed by all of the diet or supplement programs that my friends are promoting on Facebook. I rejoice with them in their weight loss and in finding what worked for them. However, there is no one plan that works the same for every single person. We are all different. We are unique. We cannot expect the same results for one person as for another.
The same concept applies to our spiritual diet. It is different for everyone. There are days in which I need to exercise my spiritual muscles in the Word. Or I am lacking in vitamin “P,” in need of extra prayer.
My mom was craving vegetables last week—probably a sign that her body needed one of those nutrients.
Spiritually speaking, we sometimes don’t know what we are craving, but there is a spiritual void that can only be filled by our Creator.
The five spiritual food groups could be classified as
- Prayer
- Bible
- Fellowship
- Worship
- Service
What element of your spiritual diet do you need an extra dose of today?
Multi-faceted health
We multi-task. We juggle various responsibilities with grace and style. Okay, maybe not so gracefully and the style may be outdated.
But in the middle of the complex lives we try to manage, our health is one of the priorities that can slip through the cracks.
A woman’s spiritual health is intricately connected to physical health, mental health, emotional health, and the health of her family.
How do you feel when you’re hungry? Does your patience wear thinner?
And if you’ve had a stressful day… Is it more difficult to trust God?
What about if you’re discouraged or depressed? Does it make it harder to rejoice in everything?
And finally, if a member of your family is having their own struggles, how is your faith affected?
Women’s spiritual health cannot be separated from the other aspects of women’s health. Therefore, this month, we will explore the multi-faceted health of women and the way in which each aspect relates to our spiritual health.
Which aspect of your health is most affecting your spiritual health at this time?
