The Bondage of Food!!

To eat or not to eat.  Can I just say that sometimes I eat so much and think about food so much that I can't stand the thought of FOOD!!!  Don't misunderstand.  I am so very thankful that I have food to eat.  God is so good to me.  But there is a difference in me having food and in food having me.  Bondage is bondage.  No matter what form it is in.  Substance abuse, shopping, pornography,...

SO - today I declare - I will eat when I am hungry.  I will try my best to make healthy choices when I eat.  If I'm not hungry, unless there are pressing reasons that I need to eat, I will not eat.  Food - I tell you - you have no hold over me.  I will eat when hungry, do moderate exercise, and I will weigh what God intended me to weigh.  I will not be ruled by the scales, by my fleshly cravings, by the media's image of the perfect body.  I will be ruled by the Holy Spirit.  God knows what I need and when I need it.  He is my Provider.  I trust Him to take care of me as He sees fit.  I will follow Him!

The end.
