267. Craving Sugar?

Episode 267-Craving Sugar?

It’s Christmas and you know what that means. Lots and lots of cake, candy, pies, and every other kind of desserts. It’s the day we celebrate Jesus’ birth. It’s the day we get together with family and friends.

Most of us, though, aren’t focusing on the people we will see or even worshipping Jesus, who made a willful decision to come to earth, live as a human, and die on cross in our place. He did it for no other reason but to let us know how much He loves us. 

Still, all we can think about is getting our next sugar high. Yes, it’s very addictive. It’s like a drug. It is eight times more addictive than drugs or alcohol. And, it’s a killer. Sugar feeds cancer. It promotes obesity from which all kinds of diseases take hold of us.

The devil knows all of this. He has become a drug pusher to us who consider ourselves good Christians. It’s his voice speaking when we hear, “Go ahead and eat another piece of cake! As a matter of fact take two or three because it will be gone before you have time to finish everything on your plate. It tastes so good. It has to be good for you.”

However, my Friends, the devil is a liar. We know this, but we still want sugary foods because we feel like they make us feel better. And they do for a short-time and then our bodies crave more sugar. Only this time we have to eat more than before. It’s always a matter of more.

Can we stop craving sugar? Yes, we can. Are you ready? Join us in Overcomers Christian Weight Loss Academy and start the New Year off right.
