At church today, we started looking at how Truth gets twisted ever so slightly and where that leads us. The point was made also that the devil stands ready to accuse us. The interesting part about that is that he will do whatever it takes to get us to give into temptation and THEN step back and point his finger at us, accusing us! God's grace has set me free; free from His wrath and free from accusation. Since for me eating is my drug of choice, my addiction, the devil stands ready to tempt me and then accuse me when I give in and eat because I am feeling frustrated (or whatever emotion it is). It makes me feel even worse because of his finger pointing. I am thankful to be saved by grace! I was reminded that I have a choice to make when tempted to over eat or eat emotionally. And now I have a very good visual of the devil taunting me. Perhaps, through God's strength, I will be able to resist. Just my thoughts on the day.

And I didn't have any sweets at our Super Bowl party! And no sodas! Those two things call for a celebration...a nice glass of water!
