(Quick note: While this is an older TotW from time past I could not find it on the blog. Since I am currently sick I figure it would be appropriate to post. Enjoy!)
“Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in
health, even as thy soul prospereth” (3 John 1:3). Within the opening
statements of the letter written to “wellbeloved Gaius” by the apostle
John, the state of Gaius’ health is addressed. He was not in the best
condition physically as John wished that Gaius was a healthy physically
as he was spiritually. If our physical health was the same as our
spiritual health, how healthy would we be? Would we prosper in health,
even as our souls prosper? Would be we sickly state but able to recover
as Laodicea? (Revelation 3:17, 19). Would we be on our deathbed with a
small glimmer of hope as Sardis? What is your spiritual health? If we
are not as healthy as we should, may we partake of the proper spiritual
diet and exercise to grow stronger in the faith.
