My relationship with God - When food is my refuge, my comfort, the place I run to when I need to feel, something is all mixed up. My relationship with food is taking place of my relationship with God; it is becoming an icon in my life.
I want to stop and take the time to analyze what is going on around me during those times that I find myself seeking after the comfort of food. As a believer in Jesus Christ I want to recognize these times, these emotions, and deal with them. I want to get to the point in my life where I immediately recognize my obsession with food for what it is.
Just for today I am going to be aware of my feelings. Today I am going to be very deliberate in my evaluation of food choices, portion sizes, and frequency of feedings. I am not going to limit or make any changes; I am simply going to be more cognizant of the situations around me when I turn to food.
Scripture encouragement for today is from James 4:7-8 "Submit yourselves, then, to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you. Come near to God and He will come near to you."
