I love food. For most of my life, I ate too much and was overweight. I just got back from a cruise with endless food buffets and all inclusive dining. My eating was good at first, but later into this trip, I ate food my body did not need. I felt bloated and my stomach hurt. Since I got out of my normal habits, it has been harder to eat only what my body needs. I had lost 10 pounds, but feel like I gained it all back.
1 Corinthians 10:31 is, “So whether you eat or drink, or whatever you do, do it all for the glory of God.”
Holy Bible, New Living Translation, 2015
Eating is a natural process that I must surrender to Jesus. Every bite of food I eat is for God’s glory. I must surrender all the food I eat to the Lord. With this submission, it is easier for me to eat less food. Without dieting or counting calories, carbs, or macros, I eat less and want healthier foods. Jesus helps me to eat better better than following any diet. I surrender every bite I eat to God.
