Lord, I ate all the seafood last night. Well, I think I did leave one bite, but I lost my focus. Now this morning I’m bloated. How can I lose weight eating like this? What do I do? Do I start over again since I ate all the seafood?
Wait until you are hungry before you eat again. You didn’t eat all the meal, only the seafood. My child, I want you to hunger for Me.
Lord, do I give up breaded fried foods too?
My child, it won’t hurt you.
Lord, I’ve already given up sweets.
My child, I gave up ALL for you. Do you think giving up fried foods or sweets is too much for you to sacrifice?
Sigh. No, Sir.
Then do it. Remember . . . focus on My Presence, not your food.
Yes Sir.
Renew your focus. Keep looking at Me. Your mistake at last night’s supper was not eating the food. No, it started when you looked at the food and your heart filled with desire. I want you to desire Me more than your food. Desire Me, My child, and you will be blessed beyond your comprehension, more than a seafood meal.
Yes Sir. Help me keep my eyes on You and Your will with all I say and do, including the food I eat.
Lord, I’m having company for supper and serving their favorite- fried pork chops. What do I eat?
My child, I will lead you at that moment in time. I want your focus not on meal planning, but rather on seeking Me- My Presence. Focus on Me and I will lead you to your victory.
