Do you ever have one of those days when your body is so full of aches and pains it seems your greatest accomplishment for the next 24 hours may be just getting out of bed? Although appealing, this is never a wise choice. The more we lay still the harder it becomes for us to move. Our spirits cry out in the same way. When we do not exercise our spirits by spending time with scripture, prayer, and stepping out in works of mercy and love, our spirits become dull. Atrophy slowly creeps into our being and clouds our responses to the call of God. Just as stretching our muscles sends energy and strength into our physical beings, stretching our spirits energizes the soul.

Let us not lose heart in doing good, for in due time we will reap if we do not grow weary. - Galatians 6:9
