When I wrote Honoring the Temple of God, like most people I had cravings for many things that are not necessarily the healthiest things for us, such as pizza and chocolate cookies. We must control our appetite for the foods and tastes we crave and have become accustomed to eating over many years. We must not do this for ourselves, but for God and the glorification of His temple, our body.
In order to truly succeed and honor our temple we must choose to surrender to God’s will for us. We must be selfless in order to accomplish this because we can never be selfish with God and expect to have a meaningful, proper relationship with Him. Our relationship with God should be progressive and ever-expanding. Each day we should strive to know Him better and this is only accomplished through His word, prayer, meditation, reading scripture, service and work.
