Day 93: Control Your Body

1 Thessalonians 4:4 "that each of you should learn to control his own body in a way that is holy and honorable not in passionate lust like the heathen, who do not know God."

Just like wealth and honor are not ours but God's--so are our bodies.  In fact, our bodies are temples of the holy spirit and therefore should be respected and treated that way.  For we know God--that His Holy Spirit dwells within us--so we are not to act like those who do not know the Gospel.

Lord help me to be strong; to not put myself in tempting situations--but when I do find myself being tempted to respect your Holy Temple--my Body.  It is yours, not mine to give. Amen
