Body and Soul

It will be health to your body, and nourishment to your bones.

Proverbs 3:8

It will be healing to your flesh and refreshment to your bones. The prior verses call for fearing the Lord and turning from evil; healing and refreshment follow wisdom's path in proverbial promise. Flesh and bones are whole-body language. God ties moral and spiritual posture to bodily wellbeing without reducing every illness to secret sin. Still, turning from evil often removes self-inflicted damage—sleep stolen by rage, bodies punished by excess, stress fed by pride. Set your heart on the refreshment that comes with repentance and reverence. Lift a prayer for healing to your flesh while walking in the fear of the Lord. Refreshment to bones may arrive as peace you can feel. Receive wise care as part of that refreshment. Let holiness and hope share the same week.

PrayerLord, may fearing You and turning from evil bring healing to my flesh and refreshment to my bones. Amen.
