DIET?



With Thanksgiving over, many of us are going to be telling ourselves, “It’s Diet Time.”  Yes, the last feast before the next onslaught of candy that comes in three weeks.  Yes, Halloween is on it’s way and like Ralph in Drabble, dads buy a bag for themselves, or maybe two or three. I used to make it a yearly pilgrimage to head of to Walmart just after midnight on Nov 1st when the store marked the candy down to half price. I had the pick of the store. I imagined this was ‘Almost Heaven’. Not so much anymore.
Of course after all that candy we are going to again say, “It’s Diet Time!” That is until, the first, second, tenth Christmas party. They probably start just around the corner at the end of Nov and continue on to Christmas Day. What are we to do? It’s really a dilemma especially with all these fad diets all around us. I guess we need to do some research and find what does it for us. What gives us the best results. I found mine and it’s not eating anything made with wheat. What’s yours? Have you found it yet?
The same can be said about getting out of shape spiritually. Yes, we can try to get back into shape on our own but then again there are many fads but only a few tried and true ways. The first and best one is to go to the source. Get your bible out and read it. If you are an avid reader, sit and read it like you would any other book. Then go back and read it bit by bit. Other people might have their own way of doing it. Find what works for you. When you do, Christ will shine in your heart and life and you will be in great spiritual shape like you never been before. Here’s a thought - join the spiritual & physical in some amazing way.
Something to think about.
