So many of us take our physical bodies for granted and treat them carelessly. When we do become sick or are confronted with health concerns we seek ways and habits to provide healing, strength and better health. Our physical life and spiritual life are intertwined and God wants us to take care of both of them. The Heptagon gives us a visual of MRS GREN, an acronym for the seven signs of biological life. It can also provide us with a way to check up on our spiritual life and show us ways to improve our spiritual health as a follower of Jesus.
