Power Play Weight Loss For Kids

Posted in Uncategorized | July 20th, 2010

I know God works in mysterious ways with prayer, but seriously…what could be happening here?

Recently, our church has done a series on miracles and the power of prayer. Well, I’ve been praying for the strength and perseverance to lose weight. I’ve been over 60 pounds overweight for quite some time. Anyway, I prayed about this all the time…all day. Everytime I wanted to eat something. I felt frusterated, but I know I was cutting back on the amount of food I was normally eating. On top of that, I have been making a point of going out and really playing with my kids (running, tag, walks, etc). OK, so here’s my question….I know weight loss isn’t instant. I don’t expect to wake up 68 pounds lighter tomorrow (though it’d be nice). And I know God doesn’t always answer prayers. BUT, in the past few weeks, I gained 7 pounds which puts me at my heaviest ever. I feel exhausted. I’m frusterated. Could someone who believes in miracles and prayer and God please help me to not get discouraged. What’s happening?

God DOES ANSWER prayer, but often not in the way we expect it –and not at the time we want it.

I think what you should focus on first is to find out WHY you are overweight. Has eating become a means to stuff your negative feelings down? Are you living a sedentary life style? Do you drink a lot of pop/soda instead of just water? Do you snack on high-fat foods? Are you addicted to sugary snacks?
God has given us our brain and common sense to use it.

So, I would suggest that you ask God to help you find out WHY you are overweight and ask Him for wisdom on how to make changes. Maybe inner healing is what you need FIRST . Once the CAUSE of overeating is found God will help you in LITTLE steps to change.

We live in an instant-everything society, but God still works the old-fashioned way : )
