veggies

For my midlife crisis I’ve chosen to go lean & strong. I’m back on my program, meaning: no desserts, no munchies while watching TV, no getting something to eat every time I pass through the kitchen … and yes, no means no. I’m a sweet-aholic & a snack-aholic. My history has proven that allowing myself just one bite of the good stuff sends me off on a binge that I cannot stop on my own. One pretzel leads to a bowl full, leads to a bag full. Please pray for me because usually I stay on my program for 6-8 months but then I fall. I want this one to last for the next 10 years.

I hear you chuckling. I’m asking you to pray for me & you’re laughing at me! “I’m not laughing at you pastor, I’m laughing with you because I know firsthand how hard it is to stay committed to healthy eating habits for very long.” Okay, I’ll accept that. Since you feel my pain you understand the necessity of prayer in this venture. Just getting back on my program took a divine intervention & to continue will take more celestial help.

Of course, don’t just pray for my health. Pray that all of us may become more & more spiritually minded in order to accomplish all that God has purposed for us to do here at New Life Assembly & beyond. Lean & strong, lean & strong, lean & strong…

Pastor Joel Everhart
