[Steve Myers] Do you exercise? I have to get into an exercise program. Haven't been really good about that, and so I've tried to start a program. I say I tried...I'm trying to get consistent with it. But the point of a video that I was watching that you can kind of work out along with it was to strengthen your core, and it talked about strengthening this middle part of your body. And they did these little exercises that I thought looked really easy, but sometimes were more challenging than they appear. And I realized, "I've got to strengthen my core. If I'm gonna try to stay healthy, I need to do that. I need to exercise. I need to strengthen my core." And that's not something that just applies physically, that certainly applies spiritually as well.

We need to be strong right at our heart, our core, and our mind. We need to be there. And in fact, the Scripture reminds us of that in Ephesians 3. The apostle Paul wrote to God's church in Ephesus. And in Ephesians 3:16, he reminds them, not about physical exercise and strengthening your physical core, but he points to the spiritual side of things. He says that, "We should pray that He, God, would grant you according to the riches of His glory, to be strengthened with might through His spirit in the inner man." Of course, that reminded me of this physical thing, inner body strength, strengthen your core so you can be healthier.

You want spiritual health? Turn to God. Look to Him. Ask Him to help you be strengthened. Do the spiritual exercises that you need so you can be strong in God, in His way, and His will in your life. Turn to Him and ask Him to grant you that inner strength that you could follow Him that much more closely. And you'll certainly strengthen your spiritual core.

That's BT Daily. See you next time.
