While I still haven't taken the time to read all the posts up to this point, I will go ahead and blog. I am thankful for you two and I am thankful that our God is gracious enough to meet me again at the point where I have put food before Him. Stressful and busy times in life make it so easy to ignore Him, when, in fact, it is so important to be in communion with Him during these times! I want to again REPLACE eating when I'm not hungry but just trying to fill that void with feasting on HIM. I want to do that because I hate how I still feel so unsatisified when I try to fill the void with food. I KNOW HE CAN FILL MY HUNGER BECAUSE MY HUNGER IS FOR HIM, I JUST FORGET THAT.
As I read through the Bible with my children, Jackson is always amazed at those Israelites. "They're worshipping idols again!" He shakes his head. He just doesn't understand why they keep doing what isn't working. Here I am shaking my head at myself. I'm running to food again! I am so sorry, Lord. I want to learn to run to you and be satisfied. That is my prayer.

This is round 2 for us on Dee Brestin's bible study, Woman of Moderation. In our first go-round we each learned a little bit about ourselves in regards to food and losing weight. We called that blog Losing It. One thing we learned, however, is that we needed a second go-round to learn how to start Living It! Here it is.

A brief history of us
Erin, Michelle and Sam were brought together over 4 years ago through a common bond of children. Over the years we have learned that we have much more in common, not the least of which is our growing faith in Jesus Christ. His grace and love and timing in our lives has brought us (together) through many times, both good and bad. This time we are going through a bible study. May we not only "lose it," but also "live it"!
To our visitors, old and new
If you are a frequent flyer on our blog, don't just be a lurker. A lurker is a peeping Tom of sorts; someone who reads all our posts but remains anonymous. This is a very personal site and there are several lurkers. We are glad to have you as a visitor, but we'd be more happy to meet you and hear what you have to say, so don't be shy!
