1 Thessalonians 3:8 For now we live, if ye stand fast in the
Lord.
All those years I went through the motions of a being a Christian. I really thought I was, too! It wasn't until I started reading the Bible on a daily basis, I started feeling Christ aligning my heart with what He wants in our lives.
It wasn't long after I had read the Bible through or maybe I was only partially through with reading it from cover to cover, He started changing even more of my life. He started showing me lessons about how food had become a false god in my life, because I had been turning to food in times of stress instead of to Him. He showed me how my compulsive overeating interfered with my relationship with Him, my family and myself. He showed me so many things that it's hard to list them all here. If you are interested in reading more of the things He showed me as He allowed me to lose 80+ pounds and to keep the vast majority of it off for over 30 years, check out: Christian Overeaters Support where there are 100's of previous Christian Overeaters Past and Present Posts.
Because
these posts are examples of how I've applied these Bible verses to my
life, they don't necessarily reflect the whole meaning of the Bible
verse. Debbie
