MY WELLNESS GOAL
Convinced that health is wealth, precious indeed
Vital in the ministry with my best
By God’s love, grace, peace and hope* amidst test…
I aim to stay fit --- my goal of blest creed.
Striving for wellness toward fulfilled life
Propels my functional being aright
With heart and soul reaching maximum height
Achieving most, devoid of ailment-strife.
Possessing healthy body and sound mind
I can do my tasks with workmanship glow
Joyously while smiting slothfulness’ woe
As faith drives me, triumphantly-designed.
I’ll continue with my exercise-ways
Practicing self-discipline for good gain
Feasting on nutritious diet, sans pain
Trusting God that I can win in life’s race.
Yes, staying healthy is number one goal
I pray to attain with the Lord’s great hand
For such props my daily reaching-out stand
With my senses as a person, so whole.
*Romans 15:13 - Now the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, that ye may abound in hope, through the power of the Holy Ghost.
