Well Well-Beings

At the beginning of each year, Mr. Bill schedules his complete physical.  With a family and personal history of cancer, it’s the yearly maintenance he’s committed to.  Now, if we can just get him to trimming that buffet of bedtime snacks!

 

It’s scary to me that most Christians live with no sense of spiritual world!  Generally speaking, if we can’t hear it, touch it, feel it – it is as if it does not exist.  Nothing could be farther from the truth according to Scripture!  Consider this penetrating question: “How shall we escap[e is we neglect so great a salvation?” (Hebrews 2:3).  This greater salvation, announced by Christ, [like the OT Law] came with great retribution so the writer of Hebrews wants us to consider the consequences of showing no concern for its neglect!  Of course, those who simply reject salvation must consider the terms of rejection but what about those who embrace salvation yet neglect their spiritual health – how will we escape?  Yes, I know well that road “paved with good intentions!”  Let us be challenged to good heart health in this coming year, and not neglect to “grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.” (2 Peter 3:18).   Let us [indeed] be well well-beings!
