Ever get that wierd little tingle in your heart when you fall into an answered prayer? I'm _so_ there right now!
As some of you may know, my husband was very sick in the beginning of January, and was in critical care at the hospital. God used this ordeal to strengthen our faith and to bring my husband to church--I've tried for years to get him to go with me but he wouldn't-- it's really been a blessing, and it's amazing to see my hsuband's faith blossom and to hear him tell his story of faith. You'd think so to if you knew him.
At church the other day in the bulliten it said something about consulting the Book and that it's the best 'self help' book ever. Sure, I'm praying for 'the biggies', like health, employment, strength, but I guess I never thought about weight loss and self esteem from a Christian perspective, but, well, 'duh!', I guess. I will turn my food issues to God, listen to his word.
Having come across this board and thread is truly an answer to my prayers, as I am sick of dieting.I am trying to have an Intuitive eating approach but won't lie when I say that I'm sick of being overweight, too....when my husband was in the hospital I gained a good 15 lbs or so...
I gave up sweets for Lent which hasn't been too difficult, until I realized I'm substituting salty things that I don't like... glad to have met everyone , and I hope I can be an answer to someone's prayer the way people have been toward me.
