Overeating

When over indulging in food became a problem.  

I love food.  It’s something that has always comforted me.  When I’m not working or too tired, I love to cook and bake.  When I’m sad, or upset or just feeling happy, I eat.  When Im bored  and have the energy I’ll look up new recipes. But lately, as I get closer to Jesus,  this problem I have with food, I’ve been feeling convicted.  Too many snacks not enough healthy food, or just plain ole eating just because, is where it gets sticky.  As Proverbs 23 20-21 says, Do not mix with winebibbers, or with gluttonous eaters of meat; For the drunkard and the gluten will come to poverty, and drowsiness will clothe a man in rags.  

The more I read the Bible, get closer to Jesus, the more I want to be better. Do better.  I want to live by His word.  But man it is not easy.
