People are unemployed... struggling to make ends meet on the dollars they have.... fearful as they watch the evening news..... fearful as they open their mail..... saddened by loss of friends..... wondering at the purpose of their lives...... hiding their hurting hearts from even themselves as they try to distract their own thoughts using TV and internet and all sorts of things that may hurt them or others.....
DOES GOD REALLY CARE about helping those of us who want to lose weight?
DOES GOD REALLY CARE to answer prayers for self-control and COURAGE and WISDOM as we face day after day of trying to once again become healthy?
The answer actually isn't that hard to reach.
And SURE, the "SUNDAY SCHOOL ANSWER" is 'yes'. We all know that's the "right answer".
Here is the LOGICAL support of that answer :
1. God loves you. If you believe any of the Bible, that fact is said over and over.2. Just as you enjoy helping those YOU love, therefore God enjoys helping you. LOGICAL.
3. You may not have time, energy, or money to help those you love, BUT GOD DOES.
LOGICAL CONCLUSION:
Yes -- God cares about you & WHATEVER you care about.
Including your choices and your diet.
