"I believe that the greatest gift you can give your family and the world is a healthy you."

                    ~ Joyce Meyer 

A few days ago, my husband and I brought our twin grandchildren to a pet store. The twins delight in watching the antics of every animal they see there and everywhere.  

During that outing, their favorite animals to observe were the dwarf hamsters (which are about the size of a quarter and extremely adorable).

What does this have to do with today's quote?

This time of year, many of us act a bit like those little creatures who were running, running, running like crazy on stationary wheels, throughout their environment, and over one another. 

But it's not cute - or healthy - for us to run at a frenzied pace. 

With Joyce Meyer's quote in mind, may we treat ourselves with reverence, move through this day at a wise pace, and consider how we might fortify our health on all levels.

For the good of all,
Charlene
