Devotions for Dieters A 365-Day Guide to a Lighter You April 1 James 1:4 But let patience have her perfect work, that ye may be perfect and entire, wanting nothing. Wouldn't it be wonderful if there were a magic wand that we could wave, and suddenly the pounds would melt from our flesh and we would be the perfect weight? I know of no one who would choose the rigors and demands of a diet over a magic wand. Unfortunately, there are no magic wands, and the only way we can lose weight is to set ourselves to the task-body, mind, and spirit. We need to ask God's help, that we might remain committed to the task no matter how long it takes. When we call on the Lord, He will grant us the patience we so badly need. Today's thought: The longer the wait, the less the weight! |

I admit to being frustrated on many occasions, but You have always been right there, waiting for me and encouraging me through Your Word and the people here at Grace Today. Thank You for Your patience with me. You and I will win this battle, because 'Greater Is He That Is In Me, than all the food in the world.' |

I have to echo my amen. Having come through Lent and working on Pentecost, I see my desperate need to call on the Lord more often. |
