I am free to enjoy food on this holiday without overeating. Every holiday or special occasion in the past was celebrated with excess food.  True freedom in Christ helps me to enjoy celebrating without overindulgence.

1 Peter 2:16 is, “Live as free people, but do not use your freedom as a cover-up for evil; live as God’s slaves.” ( Holy Bible, New International Version, 2011).  God has taken away my desire to overeat.  I am free from dieting and restrictive food plans.  On this day of celebrating freedom, I am free to enjoy small amounts of my favorite foods.

Happy Independence Day to you and your family!
