2). Unify in Prayer daily with someone you know or don’t know. Connect with someone. Don’t forget your personal time with God.

3). Make a personal Sacrifice and give up something for a healthier life style like eating fast food, etc. You know what’s not good for you, so make the choice. Amen! Thanks!
