As I write this I'm thinking of a brother of mine who I've just had an email conversation with - a very pleasant one... nothing spectacular, just pleasant and all the while I felt light - a lovely feeling. This got me thinking about someone else in my life right now who I'm not in a pleasant space with and the moment I thought of them I felt a heaviness in my body.
Emotions are interesting things, aren't they? The emotions and thoughts are in your head and soul and yet you're able to feel them in your body... amazing how God has connected our mind/ soul, body and spirit.
Thinking about how the Bible teaches us to "put on Christ" and how this will affect the fruits of our character. Things you do in your physical body like practice self-control; read the Bible and meditate on what it teaches; decide to act kindly and bite your tongue during an argument all have an impact on your inner man and infact, they are a pointer to what you are like inside... all connected.
