Diets & Me: What Works & What Doesn't

First Place Bible study

This title, “Diets & Me” is the whole reason the diets I have tried in the past have failed. Of course, it was for me that I attempted the diets in the first place. I was focused on myself. I wanted to look better and feel better for myself.

It was because of an obedient heart that I tried First Place. First Place is a Bible study about weight loss. The whole concept was to put Christ in first place in our lives rather than our personal desire for food. It was all becoming clear to me now. It was not about diets and me but about making my body an acceptable dwelling place for the Holy Spirit (I Corinthians 6:19 & 20). It was then that the pounds came off—40 of them to be exact. I am healthier now because Christ is my focus, not myself. To God be the Glory!
