What's in your mouth?

That is a question that I some time ask myself. Because there are moments when I put things into my mouth that shouldn't be there or I will let words come out that shouldn't be said. Whether it is the off limit foods or words of doubt I must be slow to speak and quick to listen! For the past few months I realize that I am what I eat, think, say, do, and pray. I do believe that the Lord want us to be mindful of things that is in our mouth. I reminded of David that said "I will bless the Lord at all times and HIS praise shall be in my mouth" So that is one thing that should be in our mouth. And yes I am going to say this and eating healthy should also be there! Now you know I wasn't going to let that past by!! I learned that I must eat to live and not live to eat. Okay I confess for years I live the opposite way I lived to eat. I use to dream of what I was eating the next day! and also when I prayed I made out my menu then! Now you know I had it bad. No I am not saying that one shouldn't eat, but I am saying that I was addicted to food! I was an emotional eater, always eating because I always stayed upset about something. I thank God for mercy, forgiveness, and grace. That's the reason I don't look down on others as they go through the struggle of trying to get healthy. Because God love is ONE SIZE FIT ALL!!! But even though He loves us and want the best for us , we must also do our part in presenting ourselves to the world as a reflection of Him. We must come together and encourage one another just like the other ones does. I know sometimes it isn't always easy to stay on the path of healthy eating, but we must in control of our flesh(that part of us that just want to do whatever it feel like). We must tell it what it will or will not do. We are God temple here in the earth and we must glorify Him in it. I also found out that I don't have to eat my way into the Kingdom!! And I can now make God presence my comfort food!
