Freedom from, not freedom because.

From, not because.

Many of us believed that when the new year of 2019 came in that a supernatural action was going to happen and POW! we would be changed, just like that.
Well, we see almost a month into the year, and if our thinking is not different, we in fact are still the same.  So it is with the endless love/hate relationship with the scale.

The scale has ruled our life for so long that we have been enslaved to it, and yet we need the measurement of it in order to grow in greater respect of our personal boundary with our body.

Although we do need the scale, keeping it in the correct place is whats needed. To keep it from ruling our sense of self-worth and esteem we must understand and acknowledge where our real value comes from.  Our value will always come from God, and what He says about us! That is the ultimate place. This settling place where we can rest from our labor of needing to be a certain number to fulfill some unrealistic expectation of what we think would make us happy to weigh.
Our number weight will not make us happy.  Wearing a certain size won't make us happy. The only place to find true joy and happiness is in the arms of the Father, who arms will always be wide enough, to hold our hearts.
