God: "I looked for someone to take a stand for me, and stand in the gap" (Ezekiel 22:30)
How do you glorify God through exercise?
1. It fosters gratitude for legs, heart, and lungs. The older I get the more keenly aware I am of how fragile I am. And every breath I take, if I were able to maintain consciousness of truth, I would give thanks to God that he has given me these.
2. What are your motives in doing it? [Is it] the desire to be both mentally and physically at peak performance for Christian ministry.
3. How [do] you do it? [Modest attire? Noisy? Too rough?]... In other words, are you exercising in a loving way?
4. Finally, do you have an eye to turning it into ministry? In other words, can you draw somebody in with you who needs some help with their discipline? Are you willing to stop along the way to help somebody, like the good Samaritan? Are you willing to do some evangelism along the way so that you stop and share Jesus?

INSTRUCTIONS
You can add wine, herbs or cream to this recipe, which should be served as
a side dish to roast meats. PREHEAT OVEN TO 350F. Clean leeks; remove all
withered leaves and trim the roots carefully. Without cutting entirely
through the root, slit the leeks lengthwise to remove all of the dirt. Trim
to a total length of about 8 inches (save the trimmings for stock). Place
the leeks in a baking dish in 1 layer. Pour in enough water or stock to
come about halfway up the leeks. Dot with butter and salt and pepper to
taste. Set the baking dish over high heat on the stove top and bring to a
boil. Cover and braise in oven for 30-to-40 minutes or until the whites of
the leeks are tender. The cover may be left slightly ajar to evaporate some
of the liquid. Sprinkle with butter or minced parsley and serve.
