My Temple

Father, this body you have given me is not my own..yet I have abused it, neglected it, tortured it, stressed it out and stretched it beyond capacity.  I confess to you that I have not treated my body as a temple that You have given me.  I have defiled it Lord and I want to have a mind shift.  Help me not to give in to temptations that lure me.  Help me to keep a steady hold on this body that you have given me and help me to focus on honoring You with my body instead of myself.  For You have written, Do you not know that your body is a temple 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 body (1 Corinthians 6:19-20).  If You cannot trust me to take care of the one thing that is with me all the days of my life, how can You trust me with anything else?  Help me Lord so that You might trust me with more that might be withheld from me until I learn how to care for the things You have given me.
