Episode 60: Is your Health Goal God’s Best for You? 5 Questions to Ask

In this mini episode of the Joyful Health Show, we will dig into what it means to pursue health goals that align with the Lord’s will for you. Should we pursue a pain-free life? Is weight loss a harmful pursuit? What goals are both beneficial for us and honoring to the Lord? Drawing inspiration from 2 Corinthians 5:1-10, I’ll address the sustainability of health goals, integrating your intuition, and the significance of aligning with your life's purpose. Takeaways: 1. Purposeful Health Goals: Evaluate if your health goals align with your life's purpose and are sustainable for the long term. 2. Life-Giving Choices: Explore whether your health pursuits bring joy, energy, and kindness to reflect God’s love for you and others. 3. Seeking a loving outcome: Instead of chasing short-term results, envision how your health goals contribute to love and compassion, fostering a positive impact on your relationship with God and others. Our hope is that this podcast will give you some questions to pray through with the Lord before you invest your time, energy, and resources into the next health pursuit. Listen to His voice, and let Him lead the way.  “Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you.” Matthew 7:7 Resources: Discerning the Voice of God for Your Health podcast episode from the Joyful Health Show  What is Intuitive Health and Does it Actually Work? podcast episode from the Joyful Health Show Body Blessings: A 30-Day Journal to Praise God with Your Body through Prayer, Intuitive Eating, and Joyful Movement by Kasey Shuler and Aubrey Golbek The Best Yes:  Making Wise Decisions in the Midst of Endless Demands by Lysa TerKeurst 👉🏽  Head here for all of today's show notes including the video, Scriptures, social images, and resources mentioned.☀️Start your week with Mindful Moments for Present People: A free 1-minute devotional to debunk diet culture and savor God's abundance delivered to your inbox every Monday.🙋‍♀️ Get Christian intuitive eating coaching and education with our monthly membership.
