I was reading last night and I cam onto a scripture…

Jeremiah 15:16 (New King James Version)

¹⁶ Your words were found, and I ate them,
      And Your word was to me the joy and rejoicing of my heart;
      For I am called by Your name,
      O LORD God of hosts.

I started thinking…yesturday was a real test and I think I faired alright but I don’t know…I started with my normal cup of Wawa coffee. Columbian with about a 1/4 cup of Irish Cream Creamer. (Hey at least I got rid of the sugar) then it was family dinner day at church DANGEROUS! Oh yes I didn’t forget about breakfast I didn’t eat it. So family dinner I had some fried chicken skin, chicken marsala, mac and cheese, and some german potatoes salad. I was good and instead of picking up the soda that I thought I did want but found the strength not to even want it [wonder who that could of been ;0) ] I didn’t go back for seconds another amazing feet…I am sorry I did go back but did not get anythiing. Next stop WaWa for some water WOW and then to a carnival I know setting myself up for failure. There I had 2 hot dogs a couple fries small ice cream and water.  Home for some couch time with the hubby watched a movie and had some micowav butter popcorn and water. Not much movement I am going to work on that I used to be so active all the time.

So as I sat down to read this scripture hits me…I would eat anything I saw in situations like this before. Instead I focused on Jesus and the promise I have made to him and me I fed myself with his word and I was full. Full of delight joy and hope not fatty food, Lets just hope I can stand on this today.
