Monday, February 17 – Eat these 9 fruits 4 optimum health



So I say, let the Holy Spirit guide your lives...
     19 When you follow the desires of your sinful nature, the results are very clear: sexual immorality, impurity, lustful pleasures, 20 idolatry, sorcery, hostility, quarreling, jealousy, outbursts of anger, selfish ambition, dissension, division, 21 envy, drunkenness, wild parties, and other sins like these. Let me tell you again, as I have before, that anyone living that sort of life will not inherit the Kingdom of God.
     22 But the Holy Spirit produces this kind of fruit in our lives: love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, 23 gentleness, and self-control. There is no law against these things! 24 Those who belong to Christ Jesus have nailed the passions and desires of their sinful nature to his cross and crucified them there. 25 Since we are living by the Spirit, let us follow the Spirit’s leading in every part of our lives.     
Galatians 5:16, 19-25 (NLT)
Your choice:  healthy or unhealthy food.  In real life we choose some from each category, don’t we?  Though we know better, fruits & vegetables aren’t always as appealing as the highly processed, sugared, and pleasingly packaged foods we find prominently on the store shelf.
But we are continually called to the healthier fare.  Have you memorized the list of healthy alternatives?  Do it this week, then look for them, eat & serve them in abundance; your body and spirit will be thankful.
Dear Lord, feed me with the good & abundant fruit of your Spirit.
