Living a healthy life of holiness and praise
This study on holiness could be retitled, “What it means to be a Christian. Just as the Bible declares that we should be holy because God is holy, it also tells us that we could love because God is love. Thus, holiness in action is love in action.
We live in a world where fear and anxiety run rampant. Things change around us so quickly and it’s easy to imagine the negative side of what may come next. At times we feel stuck in place, unable to leave the past and deal with the future looming around the corner.

Each of these songs has taken its turn playing over and over again in my mind and spirit.

In this post I explain how insulin resistance causes or exacerbates many diseases and point to how it can be reversed. Insulin’s job is to get the groceries you consume into your cells. It has problems when the cells have received too much glucose and no longer want anymore. They resist insulin’s attempts to get in, leaving too much insulin in the blood. The overabundance of this hormone travels throughout the body causing and exacerbating many problems that it otherwise wouldn’t if in the proper balance and able to do its job.

Thus a life of holiness becomes more natural the closer we get to him.
