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

How Am I Like Stained Clothing?

 Hebrews 10:22 Let us draw near to God with a sincere heart & with the full assurance that faith brings, having our hearts sprinkled to cleanse us from a guilty conscience & having our bodies washed with pure water. NIV

This morning, I was going to put on some clothing and hesitated, because I noticed it was stained. I immediately thought, it may be stained, but it's clean.  As I mulled that over in my mind a few times, it was on my heart, that I'm just like the stained clothing!

I've made many poor choices in my life. Overeating is just one of them, but I've made many bigger poor choices, so many I'm not very proud of. The thing is, just like the clothing I picked up that was stained, but clean, and so am I. 

I was negatively affected by many of those poor choices, that left the stain, but the blood of Christ, our Savior, has washed me and my many sins clean! I realize that I haven't posted in a while, but when this was on my heart today, that I may have stains from past poor choices, but I'm clean through Christ, I couldn't wait to share this with you! Faith in Jesus Christ is very amazing!
