As I finished out my week on choosing I was thinking about something my pastor said in his sermon a few weeks back. Staying in God's will and following his directives, laid out clearly in his word is like staying under the protection of an umbrella. Under His umbrella we can experience protection, promotion and blessing. If we make the choice to move out from underneath it we are may find ourselves open to the elements. The poor choices we make have consequences.
It wasn't long before I was reflecting on how this can be applied to my food plan and exercise. Staying under the umbrella by making good choices, I find promotion (establishing a better self esteem), protection (from disease and weight gain) and blessings (too many to write). When I step out from beneath it I will experience the effects of my poor choices.
Why then do we constantly seek to fight against what we know to be the right thing to do? Human nature....selfishness...??? I hope for more better choices in my future. One at a time!
