Lockdown 706

Lockdown Day 706- 2 March 2022

Gratitude often comes in the wake of a trial of some sort. Losing something valuable  often makes us realise its true value when it is lost.

While doing something I do everyday I hurt my back musles, changing my body from supple to rigid in a matter of seconds. After 3 days of muscle relaxants, stretch exercises and eventually physiotherapy, I regained most of my mobility.

Still very much aware and cautious of any wrong movement, I can appreciate little things like being able to stand up from a chair without my muscles going into spasms.

I also appreciate the ability to walk and exercise and to look after myself responsibly. Although I really don't know what brought this on, I treat it as a wake-up call to pay attention to my body.

We have the need to make our churches beautiful, so why not start with the temple of the Holy Spirit: our body.

So tonight I am grateful for good health and pray for those who are battling.
