Isaiah 41:13 For I, the Lord your God, hold your right hand; it is I who say to you, "Do not fear, I will help you."
I have come to realize that my mental health and my spiritual health are linked. All of my days go better when I focus on God first. Even the smallest difficulties seem huge when I do not bring them before my creator and ask for help. That "weighty" lesson was brought home to me this week on Wednesday, when after eating "good" food all week, I gained. Eight tenths of a pound is not a lot, but it was and is the wrong direction. If I do not follow through with this weight loss commitment, it will have far reaching consequences for me.
I have been cleaning out my closets. Some of the clothes that I have held on to are as ridiculous as some of the thought processes that have gone through my head over the last year. Does anyone else have stuff in their closet that should NEVER be worn by anyone, anywhere, much less in public? The things that I discard today are symbolic of some of the thoughts and actions that I hope, with the help of my Redeemer, to completely eliminate from my life.
