"Receive My Peace. It is My continual gift to you. The best way to receive this gift is to sit quietly in My Presence, trusting Me in every area of your life. Quietness and trust accomplish far more than you can imagine: not only in you, but also on earth and in heaven. When you trust Me in a given area, you release that problem or person into My care.
Spending time alone with Me can be a difficult discipline, because it goes against the activity addiction of this age. You may appear to be doing nothing but actually you are participating in battles going on within spiritual realms. You are waging war - not with weapons of the world, but with heavenly weapons, which have divine power to demolish strongholds. Living close to Me is a sure defense against evil.
John 14:27; Is 30:15; 2 Cor 10:4"
How can I relate this to my weight loss journey?
I have to give this Journey to Him. This week has been bad with getting my exercise in. I have been so busy and with the fact that things has come up with my kids that I have not been able to workout. But I have to leave it in Gods hands. I know there is a spiritual war going on in this journey. The enemy wants me to stay fat where I am depressed and embarrass. That way I don't go and do what God wants me to do. He wants me to stay addicted to food so I lean on food and sweets instead of God. This is a lot to think about.
"Good Morning Father. I love you so much. I give this journey to you. I ask that you continue to give me the strength to continue. I can't do this on my own. Please help me with today to make wise choices. In Jesus Name, Amen."
