Photo reblogged from GOD first, life second. =) with 34 notes
Starting yesterday, I committed to God in a step of repentence a 40 day meat/fried food/most carbs & dairy/fatty food fast. I realized that food is such a huge idol in my life, one that I am not willing to give up to the Lord, and it has been desecrating this temple/my body that he has given me responsibility over. I pray that through this process he will change my heart and perspective on food, and see it as a means to live, not what I live for.
I post this as a confession and testament of the work of the Holy Spirit in me because trust me…I’d rather just eat fried chicken every day…;hopefully you can keep me in your prayers as I try and surrender all of my idols to God! Lord, thank you for saving this idol-factory heart!! Please lift up a quick prayer for me after you read this! I need the sufficient strength of the LORD! :D
“No temptation has overtaken you that is not common to man. God is faithful, and he will not let you be tempted beyond your ability, but with the temptation he will also provide the way of escape, that you may be able to endure it.” — 1 Corinthians 10:13
