Sometimes I'm so ashamed of my overweight body. I know God made me. I pray and work at losing weight, but have had no success. Our body is a temple of God and should be cared for. We should stay as healthy as possible so our frame can carry well the heart that preaches the message of Christ.
Some people are simply heavier built and gain weight more easily.
It is sin to be a glutton and to live for the pleasure of food. We should also be wise in what we eat as some foods in excess can take away our health. The Good News Connection 1999-2001. All Rights Reserved.
