Today I link with the Internet Cafe to share God’s Word with a photo. (You may click on the photo to enlarge.)
1 Corinthians 6:19
Do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit, who is in you, whom you have received from God? You are not your own.
This is a picture I took of myself after doing one of my Couch-to-5K workouts. I feel convicted by this scripture. My body is the temple of the Holy Spirit and I should be a better steward. See the glistening sweat? I need to do this more and more.

Have a blessed Wednesday everyone!
One of my favorite teachers always told me that girls glisten and glow, but they don't sweat . . . but whatever that stuff is, I need to do it more too! Taking care of myself in that way sometimes becomes a low priority.
As GlowinGirl said, I need to do more of that stuff!
Have a blessed day.
Whoa…you are seriously brave. I don't take pictures of myself glowin', sweatin' or anything else similar! HA! Smiles and Love!
Conviction much lol.
By the way, your weight loss journey is wonderful… you look great!
Bless you sweet sister in Christ…
Ouch! Thanks for stepping on my toes. Hope you have a wonderful WFW my friend!
That's exactly right! Thanks for the pep talk today 🙂
Thanks for reminding us that our bodies are the temple of God and we need to take better care of them.
Blessings to you today!
Oh me too, Beth. Although I did do a little glistening this morning.
I glistened this morning doing my walk round the park in the blazing sun. Still knocked a minute off my time.

Yes brave photo.
I am somewhat glistening after a late night cooking session…have been banned from gym and the outside at the moment for health reasons but am sick of nothing in the cupboard add have sit and sew at my place tomorrow/make that today……..
and so I pushed…..yes I ache..but it was worth the exercise.
Now not to ruin it by eating the results. These cookies as you would call them. Biscuits to me, have to go through a piping bag and they involve a serious work out in winter when Butter and sugar does not cream quite as easily as it does it summer.
Hugs
Well, you have definitely encouraged me to make sure I take a double long walk today. You give me great hope that I could get a bit more toned. 🙂
Isn't it great that, in addition to all it's other great attributes, God can also use it as a de-stresser! The more we read about the benefits of exercise – from Bible verses as well as from the newspaper, the more we realize how much of a gift from God it truly is. Thanks for the encouragement! 🙂
I'm about to start the couch to 5k! How exciting that you are doing it.
Love and blessings
Blessings Beth…ouch, ouch …me too!
This does not even look like you!
Great reminder & WORD chosen for today with a wonderful illustration!
You go girl. Couch to 5K…your face already shows more thinning & that sweat is nothing compared to mine after just walking outside & sweeping or cleaning up after my pooches. Got no couch, got no 5K but since I am a temple of the Holy Spirit, I'd better get going.
sorry all WFWers…this prompting of the Holy Spirit tells me I need to get off line again and get going.
Thanks Beth (I think)!
(((hugs)))

Thanks for reminding us of how we must take care of our bodies so we are capable of working for the Lord. I should be working out, too. Not with my mouth 🙂 God bless you sister.
Oh yes, this is what the Lord has been speaking to me. I am struggling with how to accomplish what I know I need to do. But I know He will show me.
WOW! Beth that is awesome and powerful. You look beautiful!
Blessings sweet friend.

PS Love your gorgeous new design!
Great reminder and I do try to think of that scripture often. Maybe I'm not thinking on it often enough though since I still have 5 lbs. hanging on.
Oh you are one brave lady….after my walks and workouts I don't glisten, I just drip…You know when I began to TRULY see my body as a Temple of the Spirit and not just some conglomeration of organs to get me through life, my attitude so changed about keeping "temple" the way it should be kept…
You GO girl!!
peace 😉

Hi Beth,
Thank you for the reminder and I seriously must do better in this area! Must work on my tummy area! You look great!
Have a great day!
Hugs and blessings.
Thanks for the inspiration sis.
Beth appreciate this post. Wow! Blessings.
very encouraging Beth! thank-you, this is what i needed today!
a great word and one I need to adhere to…thanks for reminding me
I think I like the 5K-to-Couch better, myself, lol! But love how you tied in the Scripture. Don't you love the part about being bought with a price?
You look great, Beth!!
And that scripture is very convicting!!
What a great verse! Happy belated Birthday!!
I so agree! I started exercising again, but need to get back to it after vacation. Exercise is an exercise in self-discipline, something I need to work on!
Amen! Thanks for the reminder….
Great , inspiring WFW !I need to do more of that , too.
Blessings,
~Myrna
Thanks for that Word, Beth. You do try very hard. A great WFW ~
