Today begins our
40 DAY WEIGHT LOSS JOURNEY~
when we will
LOSE A POUND A DAY~
those pesky pounds, that you just can't keep off.
The first pound to go is
YOU
and that begins with
FASTING
from
SELF~
because
YOUR "SELF"
weighs you down.
Think about it.
When YOU
"Trust in & rely confidently on
SELF
with all your heart & rely on your
SELF'S
insight or understanding &
In all your ways know & acknowledge & recognize
SELF...".*
Is YOUR "SELF"
"able to make your paths straight & smooth
[removing obstacles that block your way]?" (Proverbs 3, Your "Self" Version)
Hmm.
When
SELF
takes over
it never ends well.
When things are going great,
MY SELF
likes to step in to mess things up,
because you never know
when the other shoe is going to drop.
When things are going not so great,
MY SELF
likes to step in and feed the woe is me spirit.
How about you?
When things are going _________ how does
YOUR SELF
try to take over?
Do you need a divorce from YOUR SELF?
I divorced myself long ago,
the day
JESUS
reached down & grabbed me out of the pit that I was in
because
SELF
was getting in the way.
At the moment I grabbed HIS hand,
the divorce was final.
Yet,
do I still try to get
SELF
back into my life?
Oh yes, all the time.
I think that SHE can convince me that I need HER
or I will be out of control
because .
SHE is part of my three persons~
ME, MYSELF & I.
But now I have another three persons
who replace mine~
GOD
JESUS
HOLY SPIRIT.
All WHO I need. Alimony for life.
Do you need a divorce from YOUR SELF?
I know a great JUDGE who will do it for you &
HE won’t even judge you,
because it is YOU who HE wants.
"Humble yourselves [with an attitude of repentance and insignificance] in the presence of the LORD, and HE will exalt you [HE will lift you up, HE will give you purpose]" (James 4:10).
Oh the stance of HUMILITY
that surrenders
YOUR SELF
is where YOU become YOUR best SELF.
So let's FAST from
SELF
today.
Every time you start depending on
ME, MYSELF & I
deny YOUR SELF~
"Trust in and rely confidently on the LORD with all your heart & do not rely on your own insight or understanding. In all your ways know & acknowledge & recognize HIM, & HE will make your paths straight & smooth [removing obstacles that block your way]. Do not be wise in your own eyes; Fear the LORD [with reverent awe & obedience] & turn [entirely] away from evil. It will be health to your body
[your marrow, your nerves, your sinews, your muscles—all your inner parts] & refreshment (physical well-being) to your bones.
(Proverbs 3:5-8 AMP)
Oh the stance of HUMILITY
is where your REAL LIFE
begins
because you will
