The World Health Organization defines health as “a state of complete physical, mental, and social well-being and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity.” (WHO Preamble) This definition is consistent with the biblical principles of healthful living, which often addresses the issues of physical health alongside the issues of mental or spiritual health. In Jeremiah 33:6 God promises He will “heal my people and will let them enjoy abundant peace and security.” Health is not simply being free of mental and physical disease; it is a wholeness of mind and body which lets us live our lives to the fullest.
