Hi Y’all:)
Imagine someone coming at you with a baseball bat, getting ready to hit you…what would you do?
Most people would fall back in fear and throw up their arms, waiting for the blows to rain down on them.
What if instead you were taught to move toward the attacker, attack his weak spot and take him out before he could harm you?
Two radically different scenarios emerge, in one you are seriously hurt..in the other it is the attacker who endures the pain.
Many people approach dieting and weight loss in fear. They are always reacting and in pain as the temptations to binge and over eat continually beat them down.
We all have the same God given ability and power to attack the problem of being over weight. Instead of getting beat down again and again, we can win at dieting and weight loss once and for all.
Let me give you another analogy.
Imagine you were going to do battle with an enemy who was equipped with modern weapons. In your arsenal you have the latest in weaponry, massive fire power, enough to obliterate the enemy but instead you decide to go into battle with.. a pea shooter and then wonder why you lost big.
Using your abilities to focus on God is your massive fire power.
Try this little exercise:
When the enemy comes to do battle (you’re tempted to binge or over eat), ”stand still” and say, “God you are my protector, take the enemy out now!”
See in your mind the enemy getting blown away.
Feels pretty good doesn’t it? Doesn’t it make you feel empowered to let God fight the battle for you?
This is not rocket science, we all have a choice;
1) Remain the devil’s doormat and continue to endure the pain of binging and over eating.
or
2) When the battle with temptation begins..allow God to take him out!
God bless,
Daniel Wychor
