This week isn’t really good for me at all. I got sick… terribly sick. I’ve got a flu which (I knew) will also endangered my baby’s health since I have him breastfeed. Until now I am still trying to recuperate. I hate to take medicines but I’ve got no other choice. Last night I hardly sleep with this stubborn cough. It was already past 2pm when I finally get rest. Indeed, I am physically unwell. How about you? How healthy are you?

Health conscious people invested much on medicines, food supplements, gym packages and other health regimen. Those who can afford really enjoyed the results, and for those who cannot afford, they just live in accordance to God’s will for them to live. But mind you, there are still health conscious people that died early. They might be physically fit, but when it is really their time- a God’s appointment time to go, they have no choice at all.
And when it is your time to go, are you ready?
Being healthy does not apply to our physical aspect only. We also have to check our spiritual health. Our physical health is tangible, visible but only ourselves can assess our spiritual health if it is in good shape or not at all. The Book of Matthew 4:4 emphasizes that Man cannot live by bread alone. Yes, indeed, we cannot live healthily by bread alone. Because no matter how physically fit we are but our spiritual status is rotten, we are still malnourished. We need to nourish our spiritual aspect by feeding ourselves with His words, digesting it thoroughly and live with it so we could have a healthy spiritual life.

I am somehow guilty about this. Honestly, my spiritual health needs to be treated badly. My spirit is malnourished, lacking of so many things. I thought it is just enough to have our daily devotional, a weekly bible study and going to church every Wednesday and/or Sunday. Maybe, if that would be just the basis, I am not really that spiritually unwell. However, my personal walk with God matters most… and it is where I fall short. I will not elaborate it here. But one thing is for sure, I am struggling, I felt like I am spiritually handicap. God knows what’s in my heart. He knows how passionate I am to Him… He knows the real score. He knows how guilty I am.
How about you?
