Overweight?  You did not get there by accident.  You ate your way there and you did not move your body enough - all on you.  

Poor health stats?  Blood pressure, sugar, cholesterol and more CAN be positively impacted through your lifestyle choices, no matter what your DNA dictates.  

Hate what the mirror shows?  Again, all on you!  First of all, how you feel about what you see is totally your own opinion of yourself.  You should love yourself no matter how you look, then because you love yourself - you pour loving care into yourself which WILL impact how you look.  YOUR choice of clothes, YOUR choice to care for your hair, nails, skin and so on.   

The Bible reminds us that our bodies is not ours, therefore, we have a stewardship responsibility for its care, just as the Priests had for the maintenance of the Temple when it was in a tent or building. Today, the Holy Spirit is not behind a special curtain. Today the Holy Spirit lives in US!   It is a sad thing that even today, we take better care of our paneled houses (our address where we live) than our bodies, where the Holy Spirit lives.  God was angry about that in the past, I propose to you, He is just as angry about that level of stewardship today. Haggai 1:3-4  ""Then the word of the Lord came through the prophet Haggai:  “Is it a time for you yourselves to be living in your paneled houses, while this house remains a ruin?”"

Christians - we have done a POOR JOB managing this body that God has given us to move through this side of eternity.
