God's Temple

"Don't you know that you yourselves are God's temple and that God's Spirit lives in you?" 1 Cor. 3:16-17

You are God’s dwelling place. He is at home in you. Focus on that reality this morning. You do not have to seek Him out and get His attention—He has sought you out. In the Old Testament, worship in the temple engaged all the senses. This week, create an atmosphere for your prayer time that engages your senses. Light a fragrant candle. Play worshipful music. Let your senses enter into the experience of worship.

Wow. I've been thinking about this even before reading your post -- temple of God. And how I want to conduct myself in a way that honors Him -- what I say, how I dress, how I eat, how I keep my surroundings, how I honor my husband. This is a good post, as always. Thank you!
