Day 2~ Be satisfied with what you have~By Joyce Meyer~ Devotion and reflection

August 13, 2016

To continue with previous post~ 100 ways to Simplify your Life by Joyce Meyer last post talked about keeping focus. 2) Be satisfied with What You Have~ Scripture reading is from Hebrews 13:5 " Let your character or moral disposition be free from love of money [including greed, avarice, lust, and craving for earthly possessions] and be satisfied with your present[circumstances and with what you have]; for He [God] Himself has said, I will not in any way fail you. This is something that is difficult for many to comprehend! Is having "more" really satisfying? The more you have in reality is more that you have to take care of. Choices lead to consequences! I remember when I wanted to move out on my own! I saved my money I was making from subbing and cleaning. My grandfather passed away and I was able to take any house ware items that he had. I boxed them up and put aside. I looked for apartments and places. My friends wanted to get a place together! We had 5 of us thin...

2023 Freedom

January 09, 2023

I felt that God was showing me the word freedom for 2023. I started to think about the word freedom. The definition of freedom is the power or right to act, speak, or think as one wants without hindrance or restraint. What does freedom mean to you? Freedom is one of my favorite words representing different meanings in my life. I remember in my early 20s, I was significantly overweight and hated my life. I just graduated from high school with no particular thought of who I was. By this time, I weighed over 350 pounds and started my first job as a substitute teacher at a preschool. I got so depressed with myself that I decided to make a huge decision and called LA Weight Loss. It was a decision to face myself and learn how to love myself. I dropped 125 pounds through the program and was learning to live my life. I was out on my own and working two jobs. Freedom was learning to love me. Years after years, the meaning of freedom has changed. I have ...

Freedom from Addictive Behavior

January 23, 2023

(1 Corinthians 6:12) " You say," I am allowed to do anything" - but not everything is good for you. and even though " I am allowed to do anything, " I must not become a slave to anything." Weight is a complicated subject for anyone to discuss. Our body image is often altered just by one thought. We can be very critical of everything in our lives that we forget our health. Between the years of 2009 through 2010, I gained a lot of weight. I was in a rough emotional place in my life. My mom was battling cancer while I was trying to figure out what I was supposed to be doing with my life. I wasn't paying attention to what or how much I was eating. It got to the point I couldn't walk without any pain. I realized that I would need to step up to take care of the house and my parents. At that moment, I realized it was also to help me. I started to lose that weight by walking and building flowerbeds. Food can be my addictive behavior and even my emotiona...
