I used to be jealous when good things happened to other people. Comparing myself to others never helped me feel better. I did not appreciate good things that came my way. Instead, I focused on the negative. I was not satisfied with my life and turned to food for comfort.

Over the years, I have grown closer to God. Unlike food, He gives me peace and contentment even when bad things happen. Psalm 103:5 is,“He fills my life with good things. My youth is renewed like the eagle’s!” (Holy Bible, New Living Translation, 2015). God has filled me and satisfied my heart. He gives me what I need to survive. God gives me peace and joy that food cannot.
