"Take care of your body, as if you are going to live forever. Take care of your soul, as if you were going to die tomorrow." St Augustine of Canterbury

Notice the balance! Both are gifts from God. Both are meant to share in the glory of God eternnally. But it seems that many people are more concerned about their body, even to the point of neglecting their soul. How much time and energy are spent in trying to prevent the natural process of aging? The consumer market thrives on this. Meanwhile the soul is deprived of the spiritual nourishment it needs for its journey. The life of the body will come to an end, but the life of the soul is eternal. Depending on how the soul was cared for, it be eternally with or away from God.
