Well and Whole

Weekly Word from the Wisdom Walk
There is great emphasis placed on wellness without an equal push to be WHOLE. The world is full of people in great health who are maximizing peak performance. In other words, they are well but wholeness is another matter.
When we sre stressed beyond endurance, when we are consumed by what others think about us to the point we have to constantly "reinvent ourselves" to measure up, when bitterness is a permanent companion, we are not whole. When we carry strife and discontent like  an aura, when we have no God connection settling instead for "the god within" and a vague idea of "I'm a spiritual person" we are not whole.
Jesus not only offers healing in the atonement he still asks,  "do you want to be whole?"
This is the much harder question because it forces us to look at our deeper imperfections and make the conscious choice of giving  those cherished pieces to Him. So how about it? Are we willing to be well and whole?
