Hoppin On The Train

Hey there! I have something that I am pretty excited about starting up this weekend and I want to share the info with you! Over at Proverbs 31 Ministries they are getting ready to kick off an online Bible study based on "Made To Crave" by Lysa TerKeurst. I am so looking forward to covering this material with thousands of other women from the comfort of my own home!

Why am I sharing this? The answer is two-fold really.

#1: I figure one or two of the people I know might be interested in a rocking Bible study - especially a free one.

#2: That dreaded word "accountability". I figure if I put it out there, someone might be thoughtful enough to ask about it down the road. And if someone asks, I want to have an honest answer - one that maybe even shows some physical change and spiritual growth.

'Cause let's face it....if struggles with weight and food were only about the food, they would be far easier overcome. Right?

That's why I am jumping on this opportunity to study what God has to fill me up. To discover what whole is left inside that my mind (and quite possibly the enemy) is trying to tell me can be filled with peanut butter Poptarts and Zaxby's French fries. To be an OVERCOMER! (Cue the Mandisa song in your head)

It is an embarrassing confession to make, but I have been in bondage to overeating - to the "pleasure" of indulging in food- for far too long. I am ready to take the first step to finding freedom from it. And, hopefully in the process, a more permanent and smaller dress size!

Let me know if you decide to join up too!
