He put a new song in my mouth, a hymn of praise to our God. Many will see and fear the Lord and put their trust in him. Psalm 40:3 (NIV)

The song I used to sing sounded something like a country music ballad that told of my sorry life. Poor me who wasn’t pretty enough, thin enough, popular enough, and all alone. I spent way too much time and shed too many tears worrying about my weight and feeling less than. After years of sulking in that life, I allowed God to set me free. He gave me a hymn of praise to sing. 

The new song is, “I am free!” I finally realized God’s unconditional love and acceptance of me and started living differently. I learned to approach my health and fitness in a way that honored God by honoring the body He entrusted to me. I no longer pined away for someone else’s results from the latest diet trend. With God’s help, I gained confidence in who and how He created ME! That same thing can happen in your life. 

I’m thankful that God took me on that wilderness journey and then led me out just like He did the Israelites. Because of my experience, I can share what God has done in my life. I can tell you how I learned to live fit and free. And with full confidence, I know that He can do the same for you! 

God changes us so others can see and be changed too.

Action Step: If you’re ready to stop worrying about your weight, let my story be proof that He can do it for you too. If you have a story of God transforming power, share it. Someone needs to know He can do it for them just like He did for you. 

Happy Sunday!
