Calling on Him

Calling on Him

October 1. 2011

Praying

Right now I know I need to "call on the Lord" because I need wisdom and encouragement. I am having one of "those" days where  I am just downright discouraged about my body. Even after working out and eating healthy today, I still am frustrated. I wish that I was able to fit into clothes and actually feel good about my body, but alas, today I don't. I know I can't stake everything on how I "feel" and I try and get past that, but tonight I just am discouraged. It is days like today that I can't wait to go to Heaven. 

I have talked to people who have struggled with eating disorders in the past and I have also talked to counselors about it. It seems that everyone says "it is a mental thing that you just have to battle." BUT, in my case it is more than that. I physically feel awful and uncomfortable. I don't want to feel that way. I want to have energy and feel good, but I simply don't. 

So, tonight, I am clinging to the verse God gave me a couple of days ago: 

Isaiah 55:6

"Seek the Lord while you can find him. Call on him now while he is near." 

I also know that not only is God telling me to call on Him, I also feel that today He asked me to ask for prayer for wisdom and discernment about what to do. So, that is my next step...asking someone to pray for me. I am not sure who or when, but I know I need to. I KNOW that God is so good in that He will provide that person for me soon! I am so thankful I don't have to deal with this stuff alone!
