But when you are tempted, He will also provide a way out so that you can stand up under it. 1 Corinthians 10:13
Whether you eat or drink, or whatever you do, do it all for the glory of God. 1 Corinthians 10:31
Ring, ring.
Check to see who it is.
I'm in bed.
It's His Living Sacrifice .
I feel like I got caught with my hand in the cookie jar.
Well it was actually the Tupperware container filled with nachos.
Pick up the phone and no we didn't talk about receipes.
We talked about how we did with our eating for the day.
Paula celebrated Thanksgiving yesterday. She's American.
I'm Canadian.
Thanksgiving was in October in the 'great white North".
"Ya, well I'm eating some nachos right now," as I put the lid back on the container.
The urge to continue eating is gone.
Just a hand full was eaten.
Yepper, two days in a row, God in His faithfulness, EVEN when I wasn't being faithful provided a way out for me.
When I woke up this morning and took out my daily Promises from God scripture card out 1 Corinthians 10:31 was there.
Whatever I eat or drink, or whatever, I am do it all for the glory of God.
Eating well.
Nourishing this 'temple' that is NOT mine, but God Almighty's.
Rest in the Lord and wait patiently for Him. Psalm 37:7
When I see this picture above, I remember there was a time I couldn't even cross my legs without lifting my leg up with my hands and placing it over the other one. Forget sitting like this!
I'm learning with this issue of food, the stronghold and bondage that I was in concerning food, is a matter of trust.
Trust in the One that has set me free.
Trust that the good work that He has started within and without, WILL be completed..
I MUST not do this
I WILL never take any credit for this weight release.
It was totally God's doing.
You know, I can't even take credit for crying out to God..
That was His doing too...
It's all about Him. It's all HIS DOING...
So I will rest in Him and wait patiently has He releases me from the last of these 30 lbs that have no place on this temple...

Amen, it's all about Him. Someone sent me a message and said they hope to one day have my commitment and I replied by telling them that I'm only committed because of God. It's all His doing, apart from Him, I can do nothing.
You will finish, because He is committed to you. And then His grace will help you to maintain. He is faithful.
