Improve Your Eating For Whom?

Maybe one reason you can't get on board with changing your eating is because you have made peace with how you look and how you feel. You are OK with belly fat, aches and pains and declining energy. 

Well, I just had a revelation today. It's not about you. It's about those whose lives you impact.
  • A spouse who needs you at peak energy and full functioning
  • Children who need the example of healthy eating to grow up in the best way
  • Grandchildren who also need the role model
  • Friends who are stuck in ruts and need an example to inspire them
  • All the other people whose lives you impact: neighbors, other family members, co-workers, and anyone who ever sees you and interacts with you
You may respond, "I'm not that important."

Yes, you are. You may be the only book on healthy eating that other people read. You may be the only chance someone will have to rescue themselves from disease, discomfort and misery. You are that important. Yes you are!

It's not about you or me, but about those whose lives we impact, whether we know it or not. Think about it and pray about it and see if that resonates with you.
