Hey Clawson family!

Song:

Scripture:

Genesis 2:15 (NIV) – “The Lord God took the man and put him in the Garden of Eden to work it and take care of it.”

Proverbs 3:7-8 (NIV) – “Do not be wise in your own eyes; fear the Lord and shun evil. This will bring health to your body and nourishment to your bones.”

Devotion:

God has given us our bodies as a precious gift, and just like Adam was entrusted with the care of the Garden, we are entrusted with the care of our bodies. Stewardship is an act of gratitude and obedience. How we treat our bodies reflects our understanding of their value.

Application:

• Take a moment to reflect on how you treat your body. Are you intentional about proper nutrition, exercise, and rest?

• Acknowledge that your body is a temple and make one small change today to care for it better.

Journal Questions:

1. Do I view my body as a gift from God? Why or why not?

2. In what ways have I neglected caring for my body?

3. What one change can I make today to better steward my health?

Challenge:

Drink an extra glass of water today and take a short walk, recognizing that these small acts honor the gift God has given you.
