Living Well with All Your Strength

We are all familiar with the term body language as it applies to nonverbal communication.  An additional meaning of body language is to listen to what our bodies  are saying to us right now. This past Sunday's reflection suggests that "people who embody Hope exude a particular kind of presence in their energy, in ways they relate, and in the words and actions they choose."

What kind of energy is your body currently experiencing? What kind of energy is your body communicating right now to yourself? to others? As you assess the energy your body is both experiencing and communicating, is there anything different you want to do to change or enhance your energy?

Duane's note: We have a program a work called "Energy for Life"where we take time to evaluate how we use our personal energy, what are our priorities and how should we be using our energy based on our goals. It has been very interesting to focus my attention on how much energy I waste on unimportant things that don't really matter to me (or at least I say they don't).  I feel this relates to the passage about "don't worry, God adorns the flowers in the fields, won't he take care of you?" (paraphrase).
