Control

…a wise man keeps himself under control. ~Proverbs 29:11

If there’s one thing I’ve learned on my journey of Salvation, it’s control. I’ve learned that there are some things in life we have control over, however, MOST things we don’t.

As we journey together on this healthy weight loss campaign, I’d like to focus on the control we have over food. We are in complete control of what goes in our mouths. We have complete control of our health and nutrition. The best thing about this control is that or Father left us a guide to healthy eating. He outlines, for us, the things that we should and should not eat. The book of Leviticus clearly details foods that are considered clean and unclean. This was written thousands of years ago and it still holds true today.

Be wise in the decisions you make about what you put into your bodies. It may be difficult at times, but remember, we should present our bodies as living sacrifices. Choose health. Choose life over death. Choose a life that will enable you to get more involved in ministry, a life that will yield more quality time with family, a life that will allow the Light of Jesus Christ to shine through and draws others closer to Him.

In control,
~Sonja A. Brown
