  4. Points to ponder… • Defects and deficits in health are part of a sinful world and flesh • We strive to improve, but know we will never be perfect in this lifetime. • Never lose sight of our purpose – glorify God and serve Him and others • Sometimes God’s answer to prayer is medicine and medical care

  5. Whose body is it? • Psalm 139:14, I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well. • 1 Corinthians 6:19-20, Do you not know that your bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit, who is in you, whom you have received from God? You are not your own; you were bought at a price. Therefore honor God with your bodies.  • Romans 12:1, "Therefore, I urge you, brothers, in view of God's mercy, to offer your bodies as living sacrifices, holy and pleasing to God—this is your spiritual act of worship."
