THE SECOND TEN COMMANDMENTS

Most people are familiar with the Ten Commandments given to Moses on Mount Sinai as recorded in Exodus 20:1-17 and Deuteronomy 5:1-21. But have you heard of the second Ten Commandments? The second Ten Commandments are "10 suggestions" of a cardiologist, Steven R. Yarnall, MD, for giving one the edge on being the best you can be.

Taking care of ourselves is most often just good, old-fashioned commonsense. But here are Yarnall's "10 Health Commandments" as I found them in a pamphlet put out by the Hope Heart Institute. Thou shalt ...

1. Exercise thy body. There's no need to climb mountains as Moses did, but if you don't use it, you will lose it. A famous physician once wrote, "If exercise came in a pill bottle, it would be the most widely prescribed medicine of all".

2. Exercise thy mind. Again, if you don't use it, you'll lose it. Read. Write. Go back to school. Exchange ideas. Be creative. Be reflective. Learn something new every day. Share what you learn with others.

3. Exercise thy spirit. Read inspirational and/or scriptural books. Don't be afraid to be open and loving. Give, and allow others to give to you.

4. Exercise thy willpower. Examine your habits...the ones you want to develop, and the ones you want to change. Then, set goals and make those changes.

5. Have a happy heart. Laugh. Live. Create. Share surprises. Help others find joy and purpose in their lives.

6. Play. Schedule time for pure play and find ways throughout your day to have fun.

7. Eat, drink, and be merry sensibly. Don't eat or drink or do anything else to excess. Don't smoke cigarettes or use harmful drugs. Don't take stupid chances.

8. Give up guilt, regret, and depression. Let go of the past and move on! Decide what's wrong (not who's wrong) and take action.

9. Fear not the future. The best thing about the future is that it comes only one day at a time. The future's not totally in your control, but if you take care of today, most of the future will take care of itself.

10. Live now. Learn from the past, plan for the future, and live in the present. Love others (and yourself) appropriately now. Look for leaders (living, dead or imagined) who are worthy of admiration and imitate their good qualities. Pursue and preserve healthy relationships; you become like those you are with.

The Ten Commandments were given to Moses as a standard to teach and live by so they would have a long and fulfilling life once they arrived in the promised land. God has given us the gift of life...body, mind, and soul. I want to suggest, then, that if followed, these 10 Health Commandments may have a big impact on how well we live the gift of life which God has given to us.

Genuflectimus non ad principem sed ad Principem Pacis!

>peeking< Hi All - still working on that profile page. Very slowly coming together. At least so far I’ve fixed the super wide page on IE where it looked like it was spread over two continents. Cheers! Janey

Refreshing Candor
March 3, 2013

Of the many things I love about my mom, chief among them may be her candor. Many times I have called to ask her opinion on a matter and she has consistently responded, “Don’t ask my opinion unless you want to hear it. I’m not going to try to figure out what you want to hear. I’ll tell you what I really think.”

In a world where words are carefully parsed, her straightforwardness is refreshing. It is also one of the characteristics of a true friend. Real friends speak the truth to us in love—even if it isn’t what we want to hear. As the proverb says, “Faithful are the wounds of a friend” (Prov. 27:6).

This is one of the reasons Jesus is the greatest of friends. When He encountered the woman at the well (John 4:7-26), He refused to be pulled into a tug-of-war over secondary issues but instead drove to the deepest issues and needs of her heart. He challenged her about the character of the Father and lovingly spoke to her of her broken dreams and deep disappointments.

As we walk with our Lord, may we allow Him to speak candidly to the true condition of our hearts through the Scriptures—that we might turn to Him and find His grace to help us in our times of need.

Father, thank You for sending Your Son to be my Savior
and the greatest of friends. Help me to learn from Him
how loving honesty can make a difference in helping
the hurting people around me.

Jesus always tells us truth.

Read: John 4:7-26

He who looks into the perfect law of liberty and continues in it, . . . this one will be blessed in what he does. —James 1:25

Bible in a Year:
Numbers 28-30; Mark 8:22-38

Good evening, Mac...*HUGS*...and a Blessed Lord’s Day to the MacNessa family.

Did you use your day off wisely? Plenty of rest? d:o)

Nice weather? It has been sunny all day here, and I need to go scrape some ice in a bit

Have they let you know if the computer database is ready for work tomorrow?

[ConorMacNessa]

Yes - I got some good rest - I rolled out of the rack at about 11:00. I had an appointment for an MRI at 1:00 p.m. The order was incorrect - will have to reschedule. I went to Mass at 5:00. Have not heard anything from the office, which means we're still on at this juncture.

We're at 30 degrees here at the moment - we were up to about 40 this afternoon and had snow flurries. Light winds today and this evening. They're talking about a possible hit from Winter Storm Saturn mid-week.

Cooked a nice beef stir-fry for dinner. Tomorrow evening John Man does his thing with a quartet of thick New York Strips.



Keep Faith with the Fallen of Benghazi! Let the Obama Regime, for once, tell the Truth!

Hi Everybody!

((((HUGS))))

Prayers up for Taz and Libby.

[Kathy in Alaska]

Dear God:
I ask that no Airman, Coast Guardsman,
Marine, Sailor, Soldier, Reservist, or National Guardsman
Feel alone or forgotten.

O Israel, hope in the Lord;
For with the Lord there is loving kindness,
And with Him is abundant redemption.
And He will redeem Israel
From all his iniquities.

Psalm 130:7 & 8

[SandRat]

If it were not for women’s care
Houses would ugly be and bare
Few men would ever think to sweep
Or curtains at the windows keep

Iaaiah 40:31
Those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength.
They will soar on wings like eagles.

May God Keep Safe All Who Serve Our Country

[Kathy in Alaska]

He Who blessed our forefathers Abraham, Isaac and Jacob - may He bless the fighters of the Israel Defense Force, who stand guard over our land and the cities of our G-d from the border of the Lebanon to the desert of Egypt, and from the Great Sea unto the approach of the Aravah, on the land, in the air, and on the sea.

May HASHEM cause the enemies who rise up against us to be struck down before them. May the Holy One, Blessed is He, preserve and rescue our fighting men from every trouble and distress and from every plague and illness, and may He send blessing and success in their every endeavor.

May He lead our enemies under their sway and may He grant them salvation and crown them with victory. And may there be fulfilled for them the verse: For it is Hashem, your G-d, Who goes with you to battle your enemies for you to save you.

G-d bless and keep your children safe, Alouette.

A Blessed Lord's Day to The Mayor family.

Real friends speak the truth to us in love—even if it isn’t what we want to hear.

Thanks for today's sustenance for body and soul.
