Pro 21:30 Human wisdom, brilliance, insight---they are of no help if the LORD is against you. (GNB)

We should all be seeking knowledge on what works and what doesn't work in our weight loss efforts. Mainly, through the school of hard knocks, we find out what doesn't work after we continue to put on pounds rather than lose it.

Our ears itch for a new miracle diet plan. An easy fix. Our favorite foods allowable as often as the flesh desires it. We wonder why nothing works for us, yet other people have results, or at least that is what the ads all taunt.

Then it dawns on us. Our own human wisdom, brilliance and insight are of no help. As Christians, God expects a higher level of knowledge; understanding the revelation of Christ Jesus. Understanding His divine wisdom, His glorious brilliance and His insight for you personally-one on one. He created your unique body and He has the unique plan for you. Do not crowd out His still, small voice by listening to others. They cannot possibly tell you the plan He has for you. Doesn't that sound foolish if we think that?

Have you awakened to Christ revealing to you the perfect plan, the one that brings success, the one that you will be able to truly glorify God for? Leave your method behind and seek the Living God. Do more than turn your weight loss efforts over to Him. Learn of Him and you will learn His way for you is best. Start with moderate portions. Eat each meal as if Jesus was there dining with you. Would you really gulp your food down and have seconds or thirds while He was still on His first and only plate, or would you dine minding your manners in the Presence of the King? Make sure the Lord is for you, by being for Him. That just might be a Kingdom plan and a diet plan all rolled into One.

That was good Thankyou Editor

Nancy, I have see your eyes looking to Jesus! :hal: I think the challenges that you joined were excellent awakenings for learning obedience which is what it takes to lose the weight we desire.

Thankyou Editor.

Lord, as we sit down at the table today, make us aware of Your presence.
Help us to mind our manners in the presence of the King.



Haven’t yet found out how to work the quotes.

Amen, sunny. We must be mindful of our upbringing in Christ!

But instead of the { bracket you use the [ bracket.
