BEING HUMAN

it seems to me that one of the reasons why God brought me back to Canada at this time is to teach me (re-teach me?) what it means to be human. from things like eating properly - not just what kinds of foods, mind you, i mean the actual act of eating properly (ie, chewing 20 times before i swallow) - to breathing every day (ie, not just shallow breathing, but deep inhaling/exhaling), God is reminding me that i need to live well and not neglect the basics.

i'm not sure what the spiritual implications of these lessons are... perhaps that my body, frail as it is, is God's temple? but somehow i feel like i'm a toddler again. and it's nice to know that in God's eyes, there are things i'll never outgrow. :)

Do you not know that your body is a temple 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 honour God with your body.
~1 Cor 6:19-20~
