Inherited Health

Read Numbers 25-27

Numbers 26:65 "For the Lord had said of them, They shall surely die in the wilderness. And there was not left a man of them, save Caleb the son of Jephunneh, and Joshua the son of Nun."

Looking at family health history can be depressing. Certain diseases may run in the family—diseases we know are hereditary.

We compare ourselves to our family members when they were our age. When did Uncle get diabetes? When did Grandmother find out she had high blood pressure?

Even though we can’t help what tendencies we were born with, we don’t have to be victims of our heritage. We can make a healthy lifestyle for ourselves and possibly avoid our family health legacy indefinitely.
