My Health?

While meditating on Psalm 24:1 “The earth is the LORD’S, and the fullness thereof; the world, and they that dwell therein.” Based on this scripture, we should be reminded that even though we have God given responsibilities in our lives, God–not man — has the ultimate responsibility for many of the things we try and take ownership of in our lives.
I started thinking about just how many things I refer to as mine. I often say this is my house, this is my car, this is my job, these are my clothes, and this is my opinion . I talk about how I plan on investing my money, or how much I enjoyed my food. I say this is my friend, my son, and I refer to my spouse as my wife. I even describe my physical conditions as “my health.” I use the word “my” so frequently I somehow forgot that many of the things I describe as “my” or “mine” don’t belong to me at all. Those things were given to me by God to be a steward over.
