Resurrection
by kamelot4
This morning in Bible Study we talked about the Resurrection of the Body, and what that means. We also discussed what it means to have great faith.
Today, I again start another diet and exercise program. I am going to be doing what my doctor ordered, which is low carb, low fat, low calorie diet. Also doing high intensity-low impact cardio on the elliptical trainer. We shall see how it goes this week.
Real change happens when someone surrenders their life to God, and lives a surrendered life day by day. I got to hear a testimony at CR on Thursday night of a woman, who like me finds comfort in food. God has changed her life when “she gave it all up to him”. For it says in Luke 14:33:
33In the same way, any of you who does not give up everything he has cannot be my disciple.
It also says in John 12 that:
24I tell you the truth, unless a kernel of wheat falls to the ground and dies, it remains only a single seed. But if it dies, it produces many seeds. 25The man who loves his life will lose it, while the man who hates his life in this world will keep it for eternal life. 26Whoever serves me must follow me; and where I am, my servant also will be. My Father will honor the one who serves me.
Again, Jesus is talking about a surrendered life. Dying to self on a daily basis is hard to do, but the rewards are there and the blessings as well.
