One of the many things I most admire about my wife Sharon is her willpower. She made up her mind to stop drinking soda, stop eating fatty foods and sugary snacks, and that was it! She hasn’t weakened in over a year. She’s so good at resisting temptation.
During that time, I have made several attempts to copy her eating and drinking reforms. I last a few days, and then I fall off the wagon. I get frustrated at my own lack of mental toughness.
Clearly, I can’t do it on my own. I’m praying for God’s help. The Good Book says “with God, all things are possible”. I’m counting on that. Do you have a challenge that seems too difficult? You need help too. It’s not hard to find. He’s always there.
Amen, God is my shepherd and I shall not want.
