Excerpt from our interview – BEEP Model
Kimberley
Now, we’re going to move on to the BEEP round. Linda will give quick tips on the four disciplines of Bible study, eating healthy, exercise, and prayer or BEEP. So what do you have for us for a quick tip for Bible study?
Linda
Personal relevance in Bible study is so key because when you’re in a time with God He’s giving you guidance for that day. He’s giving you guidance for your life. So if your Bible study leads you into, off the track in a little book you read everyday to tell you what to read, then go there. Sometimes it’s sitting quiet with Him. It’s a lot of listening involved. So enjoy that time with God as a way of developing relationship with Him.
As far as eating healthy, make sustainable changes in your life as you go along. Diets aren’t going to work unless you’re going to eat like that the rest of your life. One thing that I really strongly suggest is that people get off of the genetically altered grains; you always want to eat GMO types of grains. Make sure that you’re not eating a lot of processed foods. Basically whatever change you decide to make, make small incremental changes because that change will be sustainable throughout your life. And overtime you will see results.
Exercise? Just do it. What was that Nike commercial years ago, just do it. Whatever it is, trust me, I was shocked I was doing 60 pound weights and step aerobics for a number of years and then was shocked at how much weight I lost just taking a leisurely walk. A leisurely walk is good for you and helps you readjust and spend that time with God, do that.
And prayer? Let’s not keep doing the old, “Oh Lord God, yada yada yada, Oh Heavenly Father, Heavenly God.” Bottom line is this: He created you to have a relationship with you. So you can talk to Him all day, every day. While you’re out for a walk and see a beautiful flower you can say, “Lord, that is gorgeous,” and think about that. When you talk to God, talk to God. When you’re in this healing process what you’re going to do is you’re going to be real with Him about exactly what you feel at that moment because it’s no surprise to Him, but it’s healing to you to be able to talk to Him. Try to see Him as the loving God and one of your closest friends.
