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

Still Wolfing It Down!

Beware of false prophets which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves. Matthew 7:15

I was eating with some family members a couple of weeks ago. We all had subs and I noticed that mine was gone when they had barely begun to eat theirs. I made a comment about having been really hungry. One of the family members replied that they thought that might have been the case.

The thing is, I really didn't feel especially hungry. I just said that to hide that I ate my food so quickly, but all it really did was to draw attention to it. I used to think that I ate quickly because I was a Mom. I found that when my kids were little that the only time I seemed to stop and take a break was when I ate lunch. I would still feel hungry and would eat something else, but now think it is because I was still tired and just thought that I was hungry, so I could have extra time to rest. Who knows?

It's true. I do wolf down my food. I don't know why I eat it so fast, as if I wasn't going to get more for weeks on end, as if I was afraid that someone would snatch it out of my hand, as if there were going to be a drought, but there isn't. I'm not sure why I do this.

What I do know is that God healed my compulsion to eat large amounts of food. He healed my need to turn to food in times of stress, etc. Christ surely could heal me of wolfing my food down, if I let Him. Beware of false prophets which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves. Matthew 7:15

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