Fit Bit ( SMILE)

Fit Bit (A happy heart is good medicine)

Proverbs 17:22 “ A cheerful heart is good medicine, but a crushed spirit dries up the bones.”
Proverbs 15:13 “A happy heart makes the face cheerful, but heartache crushes the Spirit.”
John 10:10 “ The thief comes only to kill and steal and destroy, I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full.”
Philippians 4:8 “ Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things.”
Nehemiah 8:10 “ The Joy of the Lord is your strength”

Today the Sidewalk Profits song “Smile” is running through my head.  Its funny, I have a number of things troubling my heart, but still this song is so very loud in me today.  I am thankful for that.   For me, in order to be healthy and have the energy to do the things I need to do, and be the woman I want to be, I have to start my day in the Joy of the Lord.  Its’ a choice.  It’s a choice like choosing to eat fruits, veggies and get movement.  I can be defeated, or keep on keeping on in Joy.   I chose to live life without drugs or alcohol, mainly because I fell down with them and almost completely destroyed my family.  Recently a new friend of mine asked me, “ Don’t you just sometimes, want to catch a buzz?”   My response is simple, “:I live in a buzz”.  I have the joy of the Lord, as my daily buzz.  It’s pretty amazing , to feel HIs joy even in sorrow.  I hope this little Fit Bit inspires you to let His Holy Spirit fill your heart so you can trust Jesus as your Lord and Savior and feel HIs joy!!!   This is truly the only way I know to be healthy in all circumstances.


Be fit and be blessed,
Kimberly

Fit Bit (Work)

Fit Bit (Work)

When we look at what helps a person be truly well, it’s not just one behavior but many  that go into a well rounded person.  In Faith Centered Fitness, I teach well rounded is first grounded in Jesus.   
Mathew 6:33 “ Seek ye first the kingdom of God and His righteousness and all things things will be added unto you.”
In our current “SHUT DOWN” many people are not able to work.  This is messing with peoples value.  We take pride in the things we accomplish and that helps us keep accomplishing.   We are not called to just hang out, and watch the screen.  We are called to Love and love is a verb!  We show love to each other by how we treat each other,  what we DO for each other.  We are either actively kind and giving or we are actively not available and distant.  It take WORK to show love.  In this shut down, you may or may not be working at your regular job, but you are still called to be the man or woman God created you to be.  So today, be inspired to actively go and do for others as you would have them do unto you.  Our value is who we are in Jesus not our works, but our work helps us.
We work because it is the “right” thing to do.  We are not saved by our works, we are saved by GRACE, the finished work of Jesus Christ on the cross for us.  When we work, we are being good stewards of what God has given us, and that just feels good!!!  It’s our way to say , “Thank you God, for all you have given me.” SO today, to help you be the healthiest person, you can be, first be grounded in Jesus and then take that strength in Him, and do good works.  I promise you, It will help you feel healthy and well!!
Matthew 22:37 Jesus replied: “‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.’[c] 38 This is the first and greatest commandment. 39 And the second is like it: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself. 40 All the Law and the Prophets hang on these two commandments.”

Be fit and be blessed,

Kimberly
