Resisting Temptation

My morning devotion this morning was all about resisting temptation and talked about how there is nothing we can be tempted by that God can't help us resist. 1 Corinthians 13 is a verse that keeps coming to me and I'm convinced God is trying to get it through my thick skull. Of course my temptation is food, not eating proper meals through the day and wolfing down afternoon teas without even thinking. It's not that I don't trust God to help me resist the temptation because I know that he could do that, but that I eat without thinking. I don't even pause to ask God to help me. My brain switches on to auto pilot. I need to become a concious eater... I guess God could help with that too.

At the beginning of this term I was determined to lose 10 kg in 10 weeks... my sister Penny jokingly said that it would become 10kg in 9 weeks, then 11 kgs in 8 weeks etc. Sadly it has become that... aaahhhhhH!

I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me...Phil 4:13

Here I am...

I can't believe that I am actually here... I've read so many blogs and thought so many times about creating my own without ever seriously imagining I would. But here I am. Where this takes me, I don't know but it feels like a bit of an adventure.

God was really with me today and I could literally SEE him working in the heart of someone I was with... it was amazing to watch and I felt so privileged to be able to witness it and know that I was doing HIS work... praise be to Him!
