Many smart people would say “Of course Health, Beauty is
something you can fix.” Actually I think Beauty
is a part of Health, although some
people, in their anxiety of being beautiful have lost their health and even
their lives. That is mostly among us, women, who are always trying to look
better. Some would like perhaps a better shape, put some here, take off from
there, and others look for a beautiful apparel to wear, combined make up, nail
color to match, even on other clothing pieces that can’t be seen. Is that bad? Of course not, I think that is part of our way
of feeling healthy; that is a property of our being feminine, the way our
Creator meant us to be and it is healthy to work on it.
I remember when I was little, if a mother gave birth to quite a large
baby, people used to say that it looked “healthy” and therefore beautiful. The
parents did not have to worry much about the properly feeding which is very
important to a baby. Now a days the babies are being checked for anything
“wrong” in case of the ones that are a little fatter than the average. As good
parents we have to give our children the best care we can, and there’s where we
could say that Health is more
important than Beauty because we are
talking of our Off-springs, the ones who are going to continue on the path we
will not be able to finish on this earth, and I’m talking about the spiritual
health. If we teach them well from the beginning of their journey on earth they
could make wise choices and live a quality life to not get into any trouble. We
can do that by teaching them to respect our Creator and search into His word
and teachings. The problem is that some do not think there’s a Creator and
believe it’s a waste of time to commit to anything that would “jeopardize”
their free way of thinking. But if they only knew how great you feel when you
know there’s Someone watching out over you, to help you out of your troubles
(because you’re going to have them in this fallen world) you not only would
give Him attention but anything else He could ask. Jesus said: “Take
My Yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and
you will find rest for your souls. For My yoke is easy and My burden is light.”(Mathew
11.29-30)
Saul of Tarsus, being a criminal,
converted to Christ by the Grace of God (read Acts 9.1-31) and changed
completely from being on eternal death row to eternal life way and becoming His
messenger as Paul, apostle to all Gentiles (all who are not Jews to whom Jesus
gave the right to be chosen too.) And he
said: ”And we know that God causes all things to work together for good to
those who love God, to those who are called according to His purpose. (Romans
8.28) Not to our purpose, or the
devil’s, which is to trick everyone, so they spend eternity in agony. That is why he’s called Satan: the adversary.
And he’s the author of many theories that distort the minds of the people who
fall on them, because they are not prepared to fight the predators who lie to
us presenting Godless theories, promising things which are not possible to men.
This is why we have to prepare our children, who are the future of the
World, in God’s Ways to be strong and healthy, spiritually, to avoid many
massacres in this world and to induce goodness, but in the name of God. And if
we have not enough knowledge we can ask God in prayer to guide us and give us
wisdom to act. God said through a prophet:
Call to Me and I will answer you, and I will
tell you great and mighty things, which you do not know. (Jeremiah 33.3)
I do not try to convince you on my experiences which are many, but if
you want to experience it for yourselves, I dare you to try it, ask Him for a
sign and you could be affirming like Paul: “For I am convinced that neither death nor
life, nor angels nor principalities, nor things present nor things to come, nor
powers, nor height, nor depth, nor any other created thing, will be able to
separate us from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord. (Romans 8. 29,30)
