My body the temple

I have realized as I try to get healthy, ahem who am I kidding lose weight, that I don't treat my body like the temple it is.  I criticize it's lack of stamina and flexibility.  I whine because it's not skinny.  I whine about my big butt.  I hate those calloused feet.  I see the scars, and I thank God, and yet I wonder what would have been.  I even wonder if my posts are redundant.
I then look at a well timed card, about faith and a mustard seed, and I can only smile a wry grin of yes, Lord, I believe.

And the apostles said to The Lord, "Increase our faith!"  "If you have faith like a mustard seed, you could say to this mulberry tree, "Be uprooted and planted in the sea,' and it would obey you."
Luke 17:5-6
God Bless,
