i could choose not to move

But I refuse.
'Cause I don't want to live like I don't care.
I don't want to say another empty prayer.
I refuse to
Sit around and wait for someone else
To do what God has called me to do myself.
I could choose
Not to move but I refuse.


i know this song by josh wilson is about so much more than health but it really speaks to me on fitness level. i used to sit around wishing for weight loss. i used to watch others around me work hard and i envied them, but did not want to put in the time myself. God calls our bodies his temple; He resides in us. i could choose to have an unhealthy body, but why? i refuse.
