Would it have been a good choice to have eaten that corn dog yesterday & nothing else because that would have been my calorie allotment?
Would I have been sad after and hungry only a short time later? Would I have moved my cravings along to healthier?
I have always been a Weight Watcher girl - for oh, about 20 years I'd say! I am one of the obese ones :( Not that they don't have a GREAT program that is a healthy program, IF you follow it the way you are suppose to. Eating your veggies & fruit servings and protein and limiting sugars and alcohol.
Well, because I have "circled this mountain long enough!" I am reading Made to Crave by Lysa TerKeurst and praying for a life change. I hear God saying, "now turn north, Amy!"
So, the corn dog was definitely permissible. I had plenty of calories for it. But, then where would I find the calories for my veggies, my milk, my sustaining foods. And, I'm guessing had I eaten that corn dog, I might just want another one today! Craving chick peas on my sugar snap peas today. Moving on. Learning to crave God over those measly corn dogs! :-) #CravingGod
“Everything is permissible,” but not everything is helpful. “Everything is permissible,” but not everything builds up. (1 Corinthians 10:23 HCSB)
