Welcome to enjoying everyday life with New York Times best-selling author Joy Smire.

On today's program, Joy will be teaching from her series, Healthy Living, Spirit, Soul, and Body.

We may think that God is concerned only with our spiritual health.

When the truth is, He cares about every single area of our life, physically and mentally too.

So how do we take care of our complete selves?

Today, Joy shares how, with God's help, we can learn to make new habits that will lead us to a healthier, happier life.

Now, here's Joy's with today's teaching.

Let's look at 1 Thessalonians chapter 5, verse 23.

1 Thessalonians 5, 23.

And may the God of peace Himself sanctify you through and through that is separate you from profaned things,

make you pure and holy, consecrated to God.

Everybody say, Holy.

Now, that's not H-O-L-Y, it's W-H-O-L-L-Y.

Make you holy, consecrated to God, and may your Spirit and your soul and your body, your Spirit, your soul, and your body be preserved, sound and complete, and found,

and found, blameless, at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Messiah.

Now, you are a Spirit, you have a soul, you live in a body, like one of the functions of your Spirit is your conscience.

Your Spirit is where you receive revelation, it's where you hear from God.

Your soul is your mind, your will, your emotions, all very important parts of our being.

And then there's your body, the house that you walk around in.

And all of those are important to God.

I think too often we think He's only interested in our Spirit and the spiritual parts of our lives and the so-called spiritual activities that we engage in,

but actually God is interested in and concerned about every area of your life.
