Your body is not yours to destroy, neglect, or worship. It belongs to someone else.
We live in a tension. Culture tells us to obsess over our appearance, to sculpt ourselves into something worth worshipping. But neglect is not the godly alternative. Paul makes it plain in 1 Corinthians 6:19: your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit. That means stewardship, not obsession. Care, not vanity.
Honoring God with your body looks like rest when you need it and movement when you are avoiding it. It looks like eating to fuel, not to punish or to numb. It means rejecting the lie that your worth is your waistline while also rejecting the lie that your physical health does not matter to God.
Holy ground is maintained. Not worshipped. Not abandoned.
What would change if you treated your body like something God entrusted to you rather than something you own?
