Trust God and Your Body in Christian Yoga

Picture
Hello Froggers!The beaches of Mexico are where I find great peace and confidence in my soul. Some prefer sitting by the pool but I enjoy hearing ocean waves and feeling the healing salt water of the beach on my skin.  Any sandy beach heals me on all levels.  Yet, my FOMO of poolside activities and striking a balance with friends draws me to both beach and pool.
Yesterday, I observed an innocent toddler standing at the edge of the resort pool, confidently holding arms out to the parent because she heard the words “I’ll catch you”.  Rather than jumping in with both feet, the little one  cautiously stepped into the water.  To my shock and disappointment, dad didn’t catch her as he said he would, and instead intentionally allowed her to drop below the water surface.  It wasn’t long before he dredged her into his arms and explained it was some kind of sink or swim learning experience.  My heart ached for their relationship knowing that she was receiving a costly education on how NOT to trust!
I now understood why she didn’t take a big leap of faith into her father’s arms.  In her short life, she has grown accustomed to dad’s inability to be there for her when things are hard and scary.  
In order to be trustworthy, we need to demonstrate to those around us a character of reliability, faithfulness and dependability.  Let your yes be a yes and your no be a no.  (Matthew 5:27). Do what you say you are going to do and show up for others.  Thankfully, Father God always does what he says he will and is who he says he is: our ever trusting and loving Abba Father.  

At F.R.O.G.pose yoga we learn to trust in our bodies as we grow in physical and spiritual strength.  Like that little girl, you may have been taught by others in trusting positions or even falsely taught yourself, limiting notions about your muscles, tendons, bones and ligaments ability to support you.  Often I hear someone say, “oh yoga, I could never do that!  I’m not strong enough or flexible enough or or ...”.  The good news is that all of us start as babies.  The difference is that babies instinctually and without thinking crave pure spiritual milk while adults have a choice to grow out of insecurity and into salvation and strength.  (1 Peter 2:20). It’s in our weakness God proves he’s the heavy lifter and worthy of our trust.  (2 Corinthians 12:9)
Sometimes life, failing relationships, grief or injury has a way of draining us of self confidence.  Join us on your yoga mat this week and take into your mind, heart and soul the truths of God as being trustworthy.  We will pray, focus on Bible verses and build confidence in the body through a 60 minute moving meditation.  Together we can overcome our great struggle to trust our bodies and to jump in, where ever we are at, by allowing God to show up and keep us from drowning!
