My food hurdle

My food hurdle

When I was younger I use to run all the time. I was on a track team and jumping hurdles. When I would get out of school I would run all the way home. I loved the freedom of running and my hair blowing back.

As I got older the running stopped because of my weight and the hurdle I was trying to jump over was food. The food hurdle would trip me and I would fall flat on my face every time. Those hurdles were there; every where!

So I gave in to the hurdles and didn't try to jump over them. So I guess I just kinda pushed them a side and lost the race. Food won and had victory over my life.

Are you at this point? Letting the hurdles of food have victory?
I hope not. You know it is just food. Just food I said. Don't let it rule you and win. You can jump over that hurdle. Look at me! I am no longer loosing the race. I am winning! Bring those hurdles on, I will jump over them. I am determine to loose this McDonald belly!

I do run now. To my mail box and back. That is the only place I run though because I know that the weight I carried for so long has hurt my joints and I am over 50 in age but not in mind! So I do run and walk.

I am reliving my younger years when I run. It is a great experience.
Jump over your hurdles. You can do this!
In Jesus,
