My Favorite Fruit & Vegetable Smoothie


We don't talk enough about health and wellness in the body of Christ! The Apostle John wrote to his dear friend Gaius saying, "Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth" (3 John 2). He wanted Gaius to have total wellness: soul and body. I believe God wishes the same for us.

In order to fulfill God's call on our lives, we must be able to carry physically what He's given us spiritually. Apostle Paul says, "What? know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you, which ye have of God, and ye are not your own? For ye are bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are God's" (1 Corinthians 6:19‭-‬20). God wants us to have a focus on our bodies as well as our souls!

I recently started juicing again. There's nothing like a good smoothie! I came up with a lovely recipe to help you get your daily vitamins and nutrients. This smoothie is satisfying, delicious, and filled with vitamins A, C, E, and K as well as cancer-fighting antioxidants. Diets high in fruits and vegetables make for a healthy heart!

If you try it, let me know down in the comments below! What are some of your favorite smoothie recipes?
