DEVOTION FOR DIETERS-BEWARE OF SKINNY PEOPLE!

DEVOTION FOR DIETERS,360 A GUIDE TO A LIGHTER YOU with Dan Dick
April 4
Psalm 37:7

"Rest in the Lord, and wait patiently for him: fret not thyself because of him who prospereth in his way, because of the man who bringeth wicked devices to pass."
Is there anything worse than skinny people who act as if dieting were no big deal? It is so difficult to hear others criticize our efforts when they have absolutely no idea what we are going through. However, we need to understand that the comments of those who don't understand us really shouldn't affect us. The Lord loves us as we are, and He truly does understand the struggles we grapple with. He has compassion on His children, and He will deal with those who are cruel or unthinking in their dealings with us. Listen to the Lord, not to others who don't know us nearly as well.

Today's thought: Beware skinny people with fat mouths!

Shalom!
Isn't that the truth! I find that people who do not have the physical issues you have ,can be so mean and cruel sometimes. If your fat, they condemn you, like when you are out in public at a restaurant, they act as if  you should never have a meal. If you are crippled up like I am , they look at you like it's your fault . People can be cruel. We should never judge anyone, we do not know any-one's circumstances and why they are the way they are. Until we have walked in someone elses shoes we should never judge. Love is the key and just like we need the love and forgiveness of God so does everyone else. Let our aim always be to love, not to judge.
blessings and shalom
