Day 8
Bible Passages: Psalm 5, Ephesians 6:18, Jude 20, Philippians
4:4-7
“God gave us the gift of prayer to turn our times of
desperation into relationship opportunities with Him. This cycle is far more
promising than distancing ourselves from His goodness with our own sense of
self-loathing and defeat.” –Made to Crave 21 day Challenge
Today I pray for a spirit of determination. I want to be well aware that I do not walk
alone and that this struggle with food is far from over. Temptation and weakness will come, but
turning to prayer and God’s word and sure fire ways to turn this temporary
struggle into a lasting benefit. God
desires a deep relationship with us, one that is growing and shaping us. How much more will it do that if in our every
trouble we turn to him not as a last resort but as our first line of defense? Now that is something to get excited
about. I love happy endings. I am a sucker for a good story where good
triumphs over evil. Today I choose to
let God be the knight in shining armor.
I have been a lousy hero in my story.
It’s time for the big guns!
