A lifestyle change, instead of just a diet means making changes that you can live with the rest of your life. It is a daily commitment to live differently, eat better, exercise more. Yet, we are all going to have days when we slip or even fall.
Maybe it was a church gathering, a wedding, a birthday or some other special occasion. In these situations I have seen many people beat themselves up emotionally and verbally again and again. This isn’t necessary or helpful.
So, what should we do? I like to think of what our Heavenly Father does for us, no matter our sin or our slip up; God shows us grace – amazing grace.
So, perhaps, you were in sin when you over ate. That sin is called gluttony. God instructs us to simply confess our sin with our lips and then repent. When we do this, God forgives us, washes the slate clean. We can move on and be free from guilt with God’s forgiveness.
What did you do the last time you slipped?
