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
