When family and friends get together, sharing food seems to be a required part of the process. Holiday celebrations wouldn’t be the same without everybody’s favorite dish or two. But, we can’t eat every day like it is Thanksgiving. If we do, the impact becomes obvious quickly. Bulges show where we don’t want them. Comfortable clothes aren’t comfortable anymore. Just like with any behavior that is excessive, there are consequences.
To reverse undesirable results, we have to discipline ourselves. It might be smaller portions, or putting down the fork sooner, or avoiding the candy jar and ice cream. If we really want a different result, we have to be willing to submit to the discipline.
Following Jesus happens one decision at a time, day in and day out.
