I Bought the Lie. HOOK. LINE. AND SINKER.

Day 3
The truth is I have bought into the idea that my struggle
with food isn’t that bad. It doesn’t
cause that big a division between me and God.
Food hasn’t created other problems in my life. I have 4 small children, all boys. Finances are tight and the days are
busy. Food is not my biggest issue. It’s all a lie! The truth is God has provided himself, in His
son Jesus Christ, as a provider of all things needed in this life. The truth is I need provision, support,
peace, unconditional love and the list goes on.
Food will not satisfy even one of these needs, but I have believed the
lie. And one more thing, I was created
for a greater purpose than to simply survive this life. I was designed to hold fast to the truth of
God’s word so that in this world I can live a life that brings honor and glory
to my Lord. He has given me everything I
need to accomplish this, but I often choose much less useful and sometimes
downright sinful means to just get through the day.
We all hold fast to things we believe to be true, but only
God’s word can reveal what TRUTH is. And
unless we spend time in it we will never know that truth or the greater things
we were created to do.
