Week 1 Accomplished!

This week went by pretty fast. I was feeling good about going to the meeting last night, proud of myself for the job I'd done this past week when I was softly reminded by the Spirit that it was He who brings any and all success of mine to pass! Granted, it does take my willingness, but it is His power alone that brings about victory in my life. I have to also remind myself that it is not so much about the weight I lose or what size I wish to be, but about being obedient to the Spirit's leading and listening to Him when I hear Him say, "do you really need to eat that?" It's about eating to live and not living to eat. It's about filling that void with Him and not with food. "For the kingdom of God is not a matter of eating and drinking, but of righteousness, peace, and joy in the Holy Spirit." As long as I keep that at the front of my mind, victory will follow!
