Becoming Less

I am starting a new weekly blog called....

"Becoming Less"


John 3:30
He must become greater...I must become less. 


I have an idol in my life that have made many attempts to get rid of.
I let go for awhile...but find myself wandering in the desert again.


Again & Again.


Recently I started reading through Old Testament again...
and in my BSF study of Isaiah we have been talking about how 
the Israelites worshiped Idols. 
Found myself judging them for their Idol worship.
But then I look at my life & realize...
Who am I to judge them with all the idols that I worship in my life?


What is this idol I speak of?
F. O. O. D.


Some of you are thinking...really? 
And Yes...I seriously love to eat.
Sweets have a stronghold on my life..seriously.


I have had tons of friends who have been very successful at 
Weight Watchers. I keep feeling like I should go to a meeting. 


I have gained 13 pounds since October...I know right?
I am out of control...I haven't weighed this much in a long time.


But let me tell you...it's not about the weight as much as it is about the
disobedience in my heart where food is concerned. I treat food as a
BFF...not something to survive on.


 I eat for fun...entertainment & comfort. 


So I went to a WW meeting last night. 
I need some accountability...support...direction.


I will go every Thursday night.
On Fridays I will blog about my week of Becoming Less.


Not only in size...but most importantly in my relationship with Christ.


I was a little reluctant at first to start this post. But honestly I'm hoping someone
out there is struggling with this also & can pray for me. Or maybe I can 
encourage someone to a this step with me. 


I'm excited. I'm ready. I know I can do this. 


Next week I will tell you my goals & what WW offers you
so come back & join me. 


Becoming Less....
