Spiritual Atrophy Haddington Elim Church

    • Christianity

When Sheri broke her ankle, it didn’t take long before her calf muscle began to atrophy. We were quite surprised that the muscle deteriorated so quickly from her inability to use it. In just a few week’s time, there was a clear distinction between the two calves. Without the daily use, it lost mass and muscle quite quickly. It was a bit scary that that happened.

To recover from muscle atrophy, you must rebuild your muscles. One way that someone builds their muscles is through discipline. From this root, we get the word Disciple. We need to have discipline in godly principles that will go far into eternity. Being fit physically has benefits but to be fit spiritually has long-lasting benefits for generations. Here, godliness is described as spiritual training.
