30 Bananas a Day!

If you like :) Could you just leave a small comment on why you strive to be healthy?

Hi all -

I am HUGELY interested in why people want / need / long to be healthy, either by eating healthy, staying away from stuff that we know kills our bodies or just exercise for the matter of health and possibly a good shaped body.

Many people today and very much so, some of my friends think I am a nut case for trying all I can to be healthy... They state that they would rather age like this - eat what they want, do what they want,and live a satisfying short, but to the heart lust life.

I will start by giving my reason for trying my all to be healthy -
1. Firstly I believe that God has created me with a perfect body, unfortunately I have realized a bit advanced into life that I can contribute to my health by abstaining from certain stuff, and do certain things to ensure a better quality life.

With this I believe what the Bible say - Your body is a temple of the Holy Ghost - and thus the temple of God who dwells within us, if we allow Him.

2. I do want to get OLD! With the possibility of minimal pains and sickness

3. I long for as much energy and vitality as possible.

I guess this is going to be a interesting one..
You can also comment on how it makes you feel that people around you don't see a point in being healthy, as I believe there is very few of us like minded people.

Great reply Jenni!

Wow.. some food for thought.. Yes if we look around ourselves and we feel true, passion and that warm fuzzy buzz deep inside... I just cant see how some cannot think that A Higher Power has created us.. The same clever people that say there is no God or creator cannot even explain the most simplest science of life.
What a sad day it is going to be when He is coming back to His children and found all of the caught by deception and lies and guess work.. Instead of accepting Him, asking for Him, giving Him a chance to work in their lives and to experience where all the beauty in life comes from..

Many people don't want to belief in a God because they say look at how the world is suffering, there cannot possibly be a loving caring Creator.
Well there is one answer for that, God made everyone with a free choice, and thus satan also.. Otherwise we would all walk around like, beep bop.. bee bop.. we love you God beep bop.. we love you God - We are not robots, this world has to undergo a ripple effect of free choice, in order for everyone to to stand either for sin and what it doing to this world or to stand against it and accept righteousness.
A holy and loving God demands NO sin, it is not the sinner he hates and wants to destroy but sin itself.
As God is holy and just, sin cannot survive / be with God thus, Jesus Christ came to die for our sins, and by accepting him and following him out of love, we will be saved and receive righteousness and will then automatically receive the gift to be with God for ever and ever.

The Bible said that every knee will bow that day and give glory to the Lamb which is Jesus.
I would rather throw away all the world can give me, and follow Him than to take that chance of saying pffft whatever , I just wanna enjoy my life.

Can you imagine a life eternally with the one who made you!? Who loves you and have prepared already things we cannot even imagine or are able to perceive with our current minds.

Who ever is reading this - I urge and pray that you would give Jesus a chance in your life and see what He will do for you, He will give you true rest peace and happiness, even if things go tough..

We only life for a 100 years max it is such a small period of time to give up this sick world, obey and love our creator , be transformed ready to go home to our REAL Father.

If any one, even just one of you have the smallest voice that says - ugh lets just try this and see what it is about.. I please with you, I am just a human being , but I have experienced the love and power of Jesus in my life, and I will help you even if it means my last cent to get to know our Father better. I will pray with you , I will answer to my best all your questions.

I just feel that have not reached this blog by chance.

Hi Michael lovely reply! :)

Sickness is all around us.. people die young, they are obese they suffer through life without energy or the will to do nice things such as enjoying nature and playing with their kids etc.. because they are to obese to even jump or roll on the grass..

You are a beautiful example to other I promise you.. whenever you are doing good people tend to look up at you..

There will be a place where we will run an not get tired one day... we will play with lions and with elephants, will will race with tigers and stroll pass the cheetah at 80 miles an hour.
We will never grow old and will spend our first couple of billion years exploring the galaxies that we know are vast, we will tell stories, will sing, we will build mansions, we will praise the One who has created us, and laughter and joy will ring like the sweetest melodies.

Jesus is coming soon :)

Have a blessed day / evening - I'm in south africa and here it is 6:42 night time.
Thanks Utopia! a lovely reply :)

I hear what you say about religious freedom.. And I respect that..
I believe I have freedom in my Creator God. Thus I do not follow man or are bound by what they do or say, but rather from love I follow the one who has created a day of rest, where His children can come together and worship in joy and happiness instead of seeing it as a burden or be saddened.
I do not think that the day will ever come where you would have to flee because of freedom for religion, but there might come a day when a world power will tell you which day to worship and how, instead of following the Bible which is God's word.

I rest safe in knowing that all that I do and all word's and commandments I follow which went out from the voice of Jesus, I do from the love of my heart, to obey Him that created me and loves me more than I will ever be able to grasp :)

Have a super healthy and blessed day / evening.

Its a very old cliche but without your health what have you really got.
I just grew tried of never really feeling 100% well and present in my body.
Hi Karen.. Very true indeed.. you have chosen wise words..

Health enables us to do things, to life live, to care for each other, and to embark on our life choices.
Real love, happiness and knowing where you are going coupled my health is what I believe everyone deep down longs for..

Have a blessed and healthy life.

You have a Father in heaven that loves you.

To recover from illness. To see how healthy I can take it. To become stronger, faster, fitter, more flexible. To have a clearer mind. To be more patient and peaceful. To thrive in the sports I play. To have more energy to do all things I want to do in this life. To avoid disease and sickness. To age slowly. For positivity and natural euphoria. Because it is better for our ailing planet.
Hi Johnny! I had a good friend who's name is Johnny

Most people go for the wrong stuff to try and recover form illness.. They use drugs and the like to cure the symptoms and in most cases not the cause.
A healthy diet , exercise and enough fresh air and sun light (Don't forget to hand out hugs and love and receive them with pleasure) will ensure a happy life.
Patience is what this world does not have any more.. people road rage, bash and shout at each other, are unforgiving and hateful. I pray that us as a family and children of God, will realize and talk to each other and that Jesus will speak to our hearts.

You will avoid disease and sickness by looking after your body..

And sadly yes today a people are destroying our planet faster than ever before..

Everyone can see that there must be and end, and that end is near..

A new heaven and a new earth will be created, and we will dwell upon it with our Creator into all eternity.

Wowaweewaa

Ok that is a mouthful said although a small bite was taken..? - Yeah don't worry sometimes I type stuff just to see how it looks..

1. It IS your birth right indeed! Clean and pure.. That is just how it was intended, and guess what? IT CAN be achieved!
2. Ughh I will go read up on this one.. hypo mono kissing - It sounds scary, and I have been in the kitchens of many a restaurant and, I am sure stuff crawls around there with worst name's than the ones you mentioned, that are ready and eager to be consumed to life and thrive in our intestine's.
- You talk about stuff that affects the majority of people today, stress, sleeplessness, chest trouble, and allergies - Just read ( and I know you all have - that is why you are hear and eating well) the blogs of many a human that, was cured of Cancers, diabetes and the list will never end.
3. Thrive!! I have realized what you stated.. there is not sauces, no dead meat, not baked nothing that will truly nourish like raw fruits and veggies.
So many people use supplements and quick diets, and so called cure's that are sugared spices and chemicalized..
4. The only true way to cure eating disorders and have satisfaction bodily is to eat it raw, without salts that burn, without sugars that churn, just how God has created it for us.

Happy days are coming!!

Cause disease sucks!
To be an example of light. I get a rush when a store clerk notices the vast quantities of fruit (150 mangoes, for instance) and makes a wistful comment like, "I and my family should eat more fruit." It's also a joy when I can give some insight to a genuinely curious clerk or fellow shopper about how to judge a fruit's ripeness or even how best to slice it. I believe striving to live as healthfully as possible myself can't help but benefit those around me as well.
being healthy is the path to being happy :)
Why do I eat healthy? I have been ill all my life, I suffer from fear/anaxity. Mainly a fear of people and social situation. This then lead to depression. I went to the Docs for help(as you do) and was given drugs. Which of coures made me feel worst. I gave up on my Docs and stoped the medication. I found spiriuality, and that lead me to realize that you are what you eat. I want to be healthy and happy. I want to find out truly what i am capable of phisicly and mentaly.

Unforchanty not 100% yet, but cant go back, i'l get there one day just gotta keep on keeping on.
