In my journey to eat less, I have messed up many times. Every time I feel my clothes getting tighter, I feel ashamed for overeating and gaining weight. I have fallen many times and will probably do it again. I need to keep seeking God to stay on track.

Ephesians 2:4-5 is, “But God, who is rich in mercy, because of his great love that he had for us, made us alive in Christ even though we were dead in trespasses. You are saved by grace!”

Holy Bible, Christian Standard Bible, 2017

I am grateful to serve my merciful Lord. He doesn’t keep track of my numerous “do overs”. Jesus takes me every time and guides me back to healthy eating. He reminds me that my overindulge causes me to feel sluggish. God gently guides me back to eating what my body needs. I will follow Him closely to stay away from overindulgence.
