Since I have used this Bible passage as an example of how the Lord God has positively influenced my overeating, this doesn't necessarily reflect the whole meaning of the verse. Debbie

Remembering My Own Advice

Then they cried unto the Lord in their trouble, and He saved them out of their distresses. Psalm 107:13

Yesterday, I wrote and scheduled the post about how I ate far more at a buffet, because I hadn’t eaten lunch, which tends to be a common theme when I’m tempted to overeat or to eat things I know aren’t good for me.

Again, I had eaten breakfast late and was just going to skip lunch, when it dawned on me. God hasn’t just led me to write these Christian Overeaters Past and Present blog posts only for everyone else, they are for me, as well. I should remember what God has recently shown me and remember my own advice.

As soon as this crossed my mind, I got some yogurt and blueberries, because I wasn’t very hungry, but knew there was pumpkin pie in the fridge that might call my name later on. The funny thing about this is that I don’t mind if others eat the pie. It doesn’t bother me in the least, because God’s taken that compulsion away from me. I DO MIND when no one is eating it and it’s something good that I’m going to have to throw away, which is what was happening to this pumpkin pie. My husband had gotten a good deal on a pie at the store, so everyone was eating it instead of the home made pumpkin pie that might go to waste. Fortunately for me, God had this cross my mind, because I was able to resist the pumpkin pie later when no one ate it. Then they cried unto the Lord in their trouble, and He saved them out of their distresses. Psalm 107:13

Since I am applying these Bible Verses to my life, it may not convey the whole meaning of the verses. Debbie
