how to lose weight

while following after jesus is important in big decisions, i believe it is the daily, seemingly insignificant choices that make our lives distinctively christian. just like people don't lose weight instantly, it is instead due to daily, seemingly small choices to eat healthier that results in the desired thinner state.


"a simple switch in vocabulary can trigger a profound difference in attitude."

i think one way to make my life more distinctively christian is to be selective in my speech. most people would think that means not swearing. but i think it is more than that-choosing words to speak is equally important.
saying the name of jesus.
speaking of blessing instead of luck.
choosing to profess praises.
using the gift of language to communicate what we mean.
vocally praising our God.
