Dieting inspiration
Here is some inspiration from my ebox today.Hope it helps you to keep pressing on if you are on this journey.
Proverbs 21:21
He that followeth after righteousness and mercy findeth life, righteousness, and honour.
Long-distance runners train themselves to think of the finish line. They visualize it just ahead. They say this keeps them from wanting to give up somewhere along the way. The reward of crossing the finish line is worth more than any pain or discomfort on the way. Dieters can learn from this. Instead of dwelling on how hungry we are, or how much we long for rich foods, we should continually think in terms of the rewards that await us at the end. Christians follow Christ with hope of a heavenly reward. Faith means we await something yet to come. Dieting means we live in the hope of trimming down and looking fit.
Today's thought: The reward of our diet is greater than the sacrifice
Keep on keeping on!!!!!
Today is my weigh in day and I am down 9 lbs in two weeks.Praise the Lord.
I know it is probably mostly water but I still feel good about it.My weight is something I struggle with daily.God is teaching me to let Him fight the battle,instead of me.I am not a very good fighter most days,so I need the Lord to be strong for me and be my strength and my fighter.
Well,I am off to get some more cleaning done,school is over and I am being a servant to my oldest son today{all week lol}by doing his laundry.
