My daughter is going full throttle vegan...she is a very young teen wanting to be healthy and finding her groove in life.
Yesterday while I was jumping on my trampoline and getting reading to hit the treadmill, my daughter was exercising with Tony Horton doing P90 and my son was waiting for the exercise floor to do his P90X. It has been very rewarding to see the seeds that I have planted growing in their lives. First and foremost were seeds about God and His Son Jesus Christ....the most important seeds.... and the fruit that has followed as they have grown in wisdom, knowledge and relationship with Him.
And now, as I watch them grow in taking care of their temple...becoming educated and growing in knowledge and applying this to thier lives....creating habits that will be ingrained within them....even if they get sidetracked, they will know the how and why to get back on track......
....so can we Inspire our children.....I believe we can, by being examples and feeding them information and good food....and not being critical or condemning.....and by sharing our knowledge and experience with others that are sick or dying or those who want to know about nutrition and health....
You WILL be able to share... and you don't have to shove it down people's throats....they will come, they will ask....and when they do, share this with your children...this will inspire and encourage them, when they see others changing or wanting to change their lifestyle and diet.
My family has been very encouraged lately. We have a very young male friend with cancer and his chemo doctors hav given him only a 20% chance of survival......he elected to have no more chemo and decided to go the nutritional route.... juicing, green veggies, barley powder, no sugar, no dairy, no meat.......and about 10 days later after he started this routine he was re-scanned....the tumors in his lungs were gone and his major tumor was 40-50% reduced!!!!
Praise the LORD!!
God's food is what our bodies need to do the repair and give health ....He gets the glory.
He gives us free will to choose......to choose to believe in Him.....and also to choose what we put into the body He designed...I do not believe these choices are on the same level...but regardless, they both give life to the body...one temporary...one eternal.......CHOOSE LIFE.......and be an inspiration to others...
