Your Body is a Temple

A temple is an awesome place! It’s created to be a beautiful home for God to dwell, and it inspires worship in people who pass through. People travel the world to see temples.

God’s Word says that your body is a temple where the Holy Spirit dwells. This physical body of yours houses God’s divine spirit. Wow! This means that by definition, your body is beautiful and awe-inducing. It’s made to spend time in, and it’s a great place to hang out if you want to meet God. Like all temples, your body also includes clues about the God who dwells there. This is the case whether or not you like your body in a given moment.

One of the hallmark practices of mindfulness meditation is called the body scan. This practice moves you through each part of your body to help you pay attention to whatever is there. Whether or not you notice God along the way, you can be assured that this “temple of the Holy Spirit” houses God’s divine presence and reflects God’s awesomeness. We can learn about ourselves and our Creator by paying attention to our bodies.

Allow yourself to spend time paying attention to your body which is a “temple of the Holy Spirit.” Notice that God dwells here with you. When you are finished, jot down some observations in your journal.

A Mindful Moment

This devotional focuses on four key categories—physical sensations, negative emotions, compassion to self, and lovingkindness to others. It can be used as a guide for daily meditation and reflection but allows for flexibility, providing inspiration and God’s peace in any situation. Use it on your journey to self-love, and then let it take you to a place of love for all as Jesus calls us to love.
