Stay on the Path ~ Sunday Devotion
Stay on the path that the Lord your God has commanded you to follow. Then you will live long and prosperous lives in the land you are about to enter and occupy. Deuteronomy 5:33 (NLT)
How many times did I hand over my worries about my weight to the Lord only to pick them back up again? Have you done that? Desire to follow Him in every area of your life only to hesitate with one?
I’d toss out the magazines, dispose of the supplements, remove the apps, hide the scale, all with the intention to trust the Lord to show me how to care for my body. I’d be okay for a while until someone posted a transformation picture or a new diet they were going on, then I’d get distracted. Maybe that was the answer I was looking for. Surely, it would work for me. I could not stay on the path the Lord was commanding me to go on…until I did.
If I’d only known that following Him all along would lead to the best life. A peaceful and more confident life. Thankfully, I decided once and for all to obey His commands and let Him guide me.
