Today’s scripture portion is taken from the gospel according to
1 Corinthians – chapter 6, verses 19-20
Do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit within you,
whom you have from God? You are not your own, for you were bought with a
price. So glorify God in your body.
This is the word of the Lord.
StoryLong time ago, there lived a boy named Himanshu and a girl named Himani.
They lived with their parents and grandparents They loved to eat a lot of junk
food. They both were fond of eating burgers and pizzas. Their mom and dad
used to tell them to eat healthy food but they never listened. One day, their mom
lovingly explained to them not to eat junk food and told them that if they did not
stop eating junk food their eyesight would become weak. Himani listened to her
mother and started eating healthy food but Himanshu didn’t listen to his mother
and continued to eat junk food only. One day, in school Himanshu’s teacher put
up a question on the blackboard. Himanshu was not able to see the question
properly so he didn’t give the answer.
The teacher scolded Himanshu and called his parents to school. The teacher told
his parents about the whole incident. His parents scolded him but later felt bad,
so they asked him why he was not prepared for the test. Himanshu told his
parents that he knew the answer but the reason not to answer was that he was
not able to see the question properly. His mother told him that his eyesight was
weak due to the consumption of unhealthy food. Thereafter, his father took him
to the eye doctor and got his eyes tested. From that very day, Himanshu stopped
eating junk food and started relishing healthy food. He realized the importance
of eating healthy food.
The Thought for the day
Eat healthy, Stay healthy.
Let us pray- Dear God, we place our worries in your hands. We place our sick
under your care and humbly ask that you restore your servant to health again.
Above all, grant us the grace to acknowledge your will and know that whatever
you do, you do for the love of us. Amen.
Let us continue with The Lord’s Prayer
