ೋღ♥ ღೋ Humble yourselves before the Lord, and he will lift you up. James 4:10
I have tried this dieting thing many times both as a non-Christian and a Christian. Each time I would lose the weight and feel great; but my eyes, throughout and after, were completely on self. I was so focused on Skye that I was not looking to the sky at all; I was definitely not praising God or seeking His help. I wanted to look good for me and for all those that would be amazed and awed by ME, ME, ME! Yuck.

Thank you, Sweet Sharla!!! You are a blessing always!!
For years now I’ve had to watch everything I eat due to type II Diabetes and high blood pressure. It got to a point where I was stressing out about the readings that never seem to satisfy my doctor. I’ve heard that stress kills as fast as anything so I decided to forget that strict regimen and just enjoy life. My doctor may not approve but I do. I no longer get on a scale or take my blood sugar or blood pressure on a daily basis. No more stress. It’s been said before: “Everybody wants to get to heaven but nobody’s willing to die to get there”!
I am glad you’ve mentioned our ego,it is true… what preoccupies us most is the ME & we forget sometimes to see from a different perspective.
