146.4

Oh my! I haven't had a chance to spill my guts lately, but I wanted to check in to let you know how I've been doing. I've been well.

Basically, I've had to come to terms with the fact that I hadn't been progressing with my reaching my goal weight because there were blocks. When there are blocks, I ask the Lord, "Why?" and "What are you trying to tell me?" "What is it that I should be learning right now?"

I learned that I still hadn't given up my right to drown in the lust of my food. So God and I dealt with that some more. He is faithful in covenants, even when I am not going to be faithful.

You see, for me it is a spiritual warfare situation, because concentrated sweets satisfies me in some places of my heart more than God. That is why I was obese. I didn't want to give that up - that soulful satisfaction of how I feel with my food in the privacy of my own body, in my own time alone with my taste sensation, by MYSELF. I couldn't give that up. But God is faithful. He is able.

"Kick out the bond woman." (Galatians) - for the bond woman has no inheritance with the free woman. I'd love to give you a Bible Study, but I've got to go now.

Moving forward and pressing on in Christ - The Ordinary Bond Servant, Andrea
