How Can I Form Healthy Habits?

When was the last time you stood up without pain? For millions of Americans, that simple act is a daily struggle. But here's the truth: God created your body as a temple, and what you do with it matters—spiritually and physically.

This week at The Journey, we explored Daniel's courage to honor God with his body, even when everyone around him chose differently. He faced with the king's rich diet and chose instead to honor God through his eating choices—vegetables and water for ten days. His courage wasn't just about food; it was about recognizing that his body belonged to God. His story reminds us that managing our physical health isn't just about diets and exercise—it's a spiritual discipline. As 1 Corinthians 10:31 says, "Whether you eat or drink or whatever you do, do it all for the glory of God."

Start by committing to healthy habits as worship, creating a personalized eating plan, crafting realistic exercise goals, and tracking your progress. Remember: small daily decisions over time build the healthy habits that help you complete the mission God has for you.
