I cannot tell you the number of times I've heard someone describe an incident in which they didn't eat according to plan as ''I've blown it.''
Ugh - I hate that phrase now. Why?
Because it's a phrase I used on myself back in the day. Now I recognize it as a time bomb designed to sabotage. It's only a matter of time before it goes off, leaving destruction in its wake.
Here is a video message in which I share what ''I've blown it'' really means and why you should never use it...even if you did mess up with your eating.
The enemy loves the ”I’ve blown it” attitude because he wants you to give up and quit.
He wants you to remain in bondage.
But here is the truth: You are traveling through life day by day. You may stumble on occasion and that is okay…it’s just part of the journey.
The Bible advises us wisely in Philippians 3:13-14:
Brethren, I do not count myself to have apprehended; but one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind and reaching forward to those things which are ahead, I press toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus.”
You can learn the lesson, make adjustments with the next choice, and keep moving forward. Take the option to quit off the table.
If you can use more motivation like this on your weight loss journey to stay encouraged and finally achieve the results you want, then I urge you to check out my all new ”The Weight Loss Prayers” audiobook.
One listener said:
I have listened to this over and over! This audiobook is read by the author, and I felt as if she were right there beside me, holding my hand and guiding me through a non-judgmental healing and counseling session…It is easy to understand, and practical, yet deeply based in scripture and the wisdom of God which speaks directly to the heart.”
