I no longer want to be fat, not because I don't want to look fat (I could really care less what I look like or what others think I look like). I don't want to continue to live a dangerous lifestyle, running the risk of heart disease, high blood pressure, gout, sleep apnea, stroke, lightheadedness, being easily winded, etc, etc.
I want to be healthy so that I feel better every day and can run and play with my kids.
!So, therefore, I need to start putting more actions together with my words!
As important as having the right perspective is, having resolve and willpower, and understanding the deep heart issues behind my unhealthy habits, I can't think myself thin. Yes, I need to think rightly, I need to trust in God who can enable me to overcome my habits, but I also need to start putting my feet and hands (and whole body for that matter) where my mouth is.
Lord, please give me resolve to act!
