Even after years of struggle with weight loss and still not totally successful Carol Showalter often remembers this phrases for inspiration and solace.
"It isn't your weight that has any ability or disability to glorify me. It is you, My child. You, wrapped up with My love and My wonder. You, the recipient of My mercy, My compassion, and My understanding. I do not think the way you think. Your talk about weight is foreign to Me. Do you really believe all thin people glorify Me? You know better. No, no, my child, you are missing the picture. My will is all you need to be concerned about. And you have to discern that daily for your life."
This holistic approach to faith based diets satisfies not only the physical needs of a person but also address the spiritual, emotional and psychological need.
