This is my word for 2015 !
I am determined to finally WIN this
war on weight. I have struggled with it
since I was 10 years old. 45 years is long enough.
On Sunday Andy Stanley spoke on below.
Nehemiah 6:3
Andy
Stanley - Dec 2014
That One Thing
Use Nehemiah determination
A habit you must break
(over-eating)
A goal you
must accomplish
A project
you must complete
A
relationship you need to restore
A
relationship you need to end
A debt you
must retire
Wouldn’t
it be great to be “ done with it “ by the end of the year?
444
BC Artarerxes 1st
King of
Persia
Nehemiah
asked for time off to help his people and restore the city
The King
said he’d help him and make him mayor as long as when completed he’d return
Sanballet
wanted to stop the building of the wall
He wanted
to kill Nehemiah
Chapter
6:1-3
Verse 3
- I am doing a great work and I cannot
come down.
Climb up
on the wall and complete the task
If I don’t
give attention to “this thing” it has the power to destroy me. (health)
Every day
you look at the distraction, temptation and say above verse !
I have no
idea what hangs in the balance if I don’t break this habit.
