You Have a Helper ~ Sunday Devotion
But the Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in My name, He will teach you all things, and bring to your remembrance all things that I said to you. John 14:26 (NKJV)
You are not alone. Jesus promised the Holy Spirit to those who believe in Him. The Holy Spirit is here to teach, guide, and comfort us. You have a helper. No matter what you’re facing, you are not alone.
When you make the decision to integrate your faith and your fitness, you have a helper. At first, you might feel as if you are alone when you choose to ditch diets and stop allowing some random person or program to tell you how to care for your body. But the truth is God knows you better than anyone. He created you. Now you have a helper in the Holy Spirit who can teach you how to care for the body you’ve been entrusted with.
You have a helper. God sent the Holy Spirit to teach, lead, and guide. When you choose to integrate your faith and fitness, you'll experience His help. #FaithAndFitness Click To TweetThe day I threw away my scale and deleted my calorie app, I was terrified! Although I knew it was the right decision, I was afraid that I’d gain tons of weight. How was I supposed to know what and when to eat?! Still, those things had way too much control on my mind and my activities. I knew it was time to break free and start living the life God designed for me.
Don’t we go searching the internet for diets because we want help and advice on how to get healthy or lose weight? Well, you have a helper in the Holy Spirit. God provided Him to teach, lead, and guide you. You don’t have to go searching when you have what you need inside you. The Holy Spirit empowers you so that you have the wisdom and confidence to care for your body in the way that God intended. Because you are uniquely created, there is no one-size-fits-all way of caring for you. Stop wasting time searching and seeking when you have what you need inside you and in God’s Word.
Action Step: Are you allowing the Holy Spirit to help you care for your body? Have you even considered that He can be your helper in this area of your life? If not, ask Him to help you today. Put aside outside resources – the diet plan, the apps, etc. – for one day and invite the Holy Spirit to guide you throughout your day. When you do, you’ll start to experience peace and freedom that you didn’t know was possible.
Happy Sunday!
