How can we start this year right for a healthy life? Find out in this new special message from Pastor Ted Wilson. Everyone likes to have a new beginning—especially after experiencing such challenges as we faced in 2020! And while we don’t know exactly what the new year holds, we can be assured that God does, and we can be confident and secure in Him as we trust and follow Jesus in 2021. A new year is a gift—an opportunity for a new beginning. It’s a time to try new things, change old habits, and make better choices—especially when it comes to health—both physically and mentally. Adventist health practices have been noticed around the world and studies show that those practicing the Adventist lifestyle of eating a plant-based diet, getting regular exercise, abstaining from harmful substances such as alcohol and tobacco, maintaining a healthy body weight, and eating nuts regularly can significantly increase a person’s life expectancy by several years. As followers of Christ, it’s important to choose carefully what we eat and drink, to take time to exercise, to drink plenty of water, to be sure to get our much-needed rest, and to consider how we look at life in general as we lean on Christ each day. Read God’s Word and see how many health blessings are provided in Scripture. And read books such as The Ministry of Healing, Medical Ministry, Counsels on Health, and Counsels on Diet and Foods. All of these books and more are available for free download at egwwritings.org. As we submit to the Lord and follow His health laws outlined in the Bible and the Spirit of Prophecy, we become healthier, happier, and holier—all through the power and grace of Jesus Christ. Apart from Him, none of this is possible. But God will add His incredible blessings when you ask Him to help you to live healthfully, enjoying life to the fullest. Jesus said, in John 10:10, '” . . . I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.” Source: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sb_MsmxDrd4
