Help My Unbelief

 Immediately the father of the child cried out and said with tears, “Lord, I believe; help my unbelief!”  
Mark 9:24

The wise man in today's verse understood that God knows our hearts, regardless of what we say out loud sometimes.  For this man to truly believe that God could heal his daughter (and to speak it) was the faith Jesus was looking for.  Friend, can I tell you something? God knows your heart.  He wants you to believe in His power, so that He can perform miracles in your life, and in your weight loss journey.  Do you believe God can change the way you approach food today?  It matters what you believe.  What you believe becomes your reality.  If you believe you can lose weight, you will.  And if you don't, you won't!  It really is that simple.  That is why needing a change of heart regarding your approach to weight loss is key for this journey.  A meal plan will only provide a temporary fix.  You and and I need a "help my unbelief" plan.  As you go about your day today, ask God to reach down, take our that stony, stubborn heart, and replace it with, as the Bible says, "a heart of flesh."  
Let's pray.
 
Dear God,
Help my unbelief today.  Help me realize that a quick fix, diet, pill, and/or surgery is not the lasting solution I need for this journey.  I need a heart transplant.  And You are the mighty physician to perform the surgery.  Thank You for continuing to bless me with Your love, patience, and mercy.  Today God I seek to believe, and receive all that You have to offer.
In the mighty name of Jesus Christ I pray,
Amen

E4M DAILY STRATEGY
Help My Unbelief
What are some areas where you need God to help your unbelief regarding weight loss?
  Here are some common doubts and fears for many of us.  See if you can relate:

1.  "I'll never be able to lose that much weight!"  It really is true that what we speak becomes our reality.  So if you say it, it will be true!  Today practice saying, "I will lose as much as I want to."  

2.  "It's in my genes.  My whole family was overweight."  Not to sound cliche, but if your whole family jumped off a bridge, would you?  Sometimes, we are called to be the ones to break the cycles and strongholds in our families.  Let that be you today!

3.  "I love chocolate too much."  Well so do I, and I have found that my love for chocolate has very little to do with my ability to lose weight.  I still eat chocolate!  And love it more than I did 50 pounds ago.  Why?  Because now, there's no guilt and shame.  Thank God, I have been changed.

4. "I don't think I can do this!"  Here's the short answer:  You can't!  But God can!  And today is the day you get honest with Him.  Let Him know you have doubts and fears, but that at the same time, you are learning to trust in Him more!  
Cry out today, "Help my unbelief!"
