Made To CRAVE!

As I sit here and think about the journey that I am about to embark on with the Lord I feel so many different emotions. I fell excited, nervous, confident, fear, but most of all I feel amazed.

I never thought that I would ever come to a point in my life where I would feel ready enough to make this bold decision and to make these changes. Food has always been my most relied on source of comfort. Its taken a hold on every aspect of my life and it’s taken a grip on me and I am more than ready to change that.

As I get ready to go on this spiritual journey I feel ready. I want to make this work, I want God to be my number one source of comfort, strength, and peace. I want to learn how to satisfy my cravings with Him instead of food. I want to have an intimate relationship with my God.

I am ready to make these changes.

I am ready to awaken my faith and renew myself.

I am ready for the hard battles that are about to come my way.

I am ready to be made new.

I know that this is going to be so hard and that its going to take a LOT of sacrifice but I am ready for whatever comes my way. Today I am committing to work on my relationship with the Lord. I am committing to spending more time in His word. I am committing to put Him before food. I am committing to make this work.

This is going to be a hard new journey in my life. I’m going to need to rely on God more than ever right now. Food is my biggest addiction and I need to rely on God for my strength. I need to rely on Him to get me through this season. I want our relationship to blossom. I want to experience His beautiful love more than ever. I want to feel His presence in my soul and feel His light shine upon me.

We need to crave YOU! We need our King, our Savior, our Abba. Thank you Lord, for providing us with Your word to turn to in the hard times and to constantly meditate on.
