When you think of these words what may come to mind is not being physically fit.
But to me they mean more--Let me explain:
As I was returning home from dropping my son off at school this morning, I was listening to a popular morning show on a local radio station. Usually I have the radio on in the background but I don't usually listen, I just enjoy the views I have of the busy world around me.
Anyway, as I was driving along- feeling down as I have been these past few days- the clouds looming above with the sun struggling to shine through, I overheard a piece of the conversation on this show. The words I heard were: In Shape. Now, the radio personalities meant people being physically fit. But, as I heard these words something else came to mind: Being Out Of Shape
My first thought, of course, was-yeah, I really need to start exercising more and getting my body into better shape.-But then it dawned on me: Wow-To me these words just plain describe my whole being right now.

Simply put-Out Of Shape!!
Oh yes, I will certainly be the first to admit my physical being is Out Of Shape, but as I take a deep look at myself, I also see other things in this same matter!

My spiritual being is running this same course. Oh, I am trying hard to re-shape it, but it just quite isn't there yet.

My mental being is almost as
Out Of Shape as my body. This is a more deep subject and quite frankly, a rougher area I am battling. The medications over the years simply do not work. Yes, they help a bit and make me feel somewhat better, but not completely!
This is where
Jesus steps in! I won't go on into detail right now because I actually have another post on this subject, but in short--I have to work from my spiritual being up for everything to fall into place!!
