Praise God for setting me free!
Written on a Saturday morning after a party:
—-Likewise the Spirit also helps in our weaknesses. . . . . . Romans 8:26 NKJV
Lord, do You still love me even when I sin? Last night, at a Sunday School party I really overate! I turned completely away from the “eating plan” that You directed me to! But Lord, I enjoyed every bite so much that I just threw caution away and ate until I became bloated! I binged on sweet pickles and cinnamon bread of all things, but Lord, they were so good!

— I will greatly rejoice in the Lord, my soul shall be joyful in my God; for He has clothed me with garments of salvation, He has covered me with the robe of righteousness, . . . Isaiah 61: 10 NKJV
