Devotional For Dieters 9/7
September 7
Psalm 34:17
The righteous cry, and the Lord heareth, and delivereth them out of all their troubles.
Pat lay crying in bed. It was so hard. It seemed that for every three pounds she lost, she immediately gained two back. She really wanted to lose weight, but she felt so weak in the face of temptation. Wasn't there anything that could help her? Pat fell asleep that night with a prayer on her lips. Strangely, she felt a wonderful peace the next morning. The battle was truly tough, but she was once more ready to face it. God didn't take away the struggle, but He was able to give Pat just what she needed to carry on. That is the wonder of our God.
Today's thought: I'll keep fighting fat until I'm fit!
