Definir el bienestar. Discutir.

Health was important to Jesus. Everywhere He went, Jesus healed people and restored them to a state of wholeness. In fact, when Jesus passed through a city, no one was left sick! (Matt 4:23-24; 8:16-17: 9:35; 12:15; 14:14, 34-36; 15:30; 19:2; 21:14). Not only that, but he lived a healthy life himself – working, eating well, resting, being active, nurturing relationships, studying the Scriptures, practicing forgiveness and gratitude, and maintaining His connection with His Father.

Some key elements in pursuing wellness are:

1. Aim for Whole-Person Health - Wellness is more than just physical health. It incorporates many other dimensions that overlap and are interrelated and should work together in balance and harmony. In order to maintain balance in your life, it is important to pay attention to all 7 Dimensions of Wellness, including the spiritual dimension. Addressing all dimensions of wellness prevents early mortality from treatable and preventable diseases.
2. Take Personal Responsibility - You have a large role to play in your health and wellness. Be aware of what you are doing and how it impacts your health - whether it harms or heals you. Your health also has an impact on your family, friends and others.
3. Be Positive and Proactive - Take a positive approach to your health and wellness. Embrace life and live in a way that will help you to become the healthiest you possible. Do what you can to optimize your health and make any necessary changes.
4. Getting healthy can be fun! - Have fun exploring the many healthy ways you can move, eat, rest, make friends, work, worship, learn, enjoy nature and enjoy life!

And Jesus increased in wisdom and stature, and in favor with God and men.
-- Luke 2:52 (NKVJ)

Therefore, whether you eat or drink, or whatever you do, do all to the glory of God.
-- 1 Corinthians 10:31 (NKVJ)

So continuing daily with one accord in the temple, and breaking bread from house to house, they ate their food with gladness and simplicity of heart
-- Acts 2:46 (NKVJ)

Beloved, I pray that you may prosper in all things and be in health, just as your soul prospers.
-- 3 John 1:2 (NKVJ)

¿Cómo afecta mi bienestar a mi capacidad de servir a Dios fielmente?

Few of us appreciate the value of our health until we lose it, but our physical and mental powers are based on and influenced by the health of our body. (COL 346:2) By failing to care for our body physically, by forming wrong habits like staying up too late, eating an unhealthy diet, not exercising enough and overworking, we weaken our body and nervous system, shortening our lives and our ability to serve and bless others. (COL 346:6) We all should have a good understanding of how our bodies work so that we can help them work the best and live our best life.

1 Cor 6:19-20. “Do you not know that your bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit, who is in you, whom you have received from God? You are not your own, you were bought at a price. Therefore, honor God with your bodies.”

God gives you the gift of health and it’s a precious gift - a gift that He expects us to use. What are you doing to make the most of this gift and to live your best life?
