Physical Training

"Therefore strengthen the hands which hang down, and the feeble knees, and make straight paths for your feet, so that what is lame may not be dislocated but rather healed." Hebrews 12:12-13


Think for a moment what this is saying.. Lets look at it another way.. When you have surgery on something, or if you break something, you have to go to physical training. You are basically forced to work what you've damaged until it is strong enough to be used normally. If you don't and you try to do what you normally would you only wind up damaging it more, perhaps irreparably. Our spirits are the same way! Our spirits have been damaged by our sinful natures and now we have to work them, a painful and long process, to get them to where they should already be. We work our spirits by digging in to the Word of God! We don't always want to.. sometimes we flat out don't. But if we don't do it, all we are going to do is damage our spirits further.. Possibly to the point where we just give up and let dystrophy set in, leaving us useless. So don't give up, but work your spirit so you may be healed!
