Change

I have been informed and educated of many health tips, but it has been remaining merely as a "doctrine." Though I tried to take care of my health in every possible way, I really was never successful. Even my wife tried to help me but not very effective. The main concern is on food habit, especially rice, which has been my staple food since childhood. 

This time on my trip to the North East, things changed drastically for good. Though I did not try it hard to diet, my appetite was under control and I could overcome the matter of eating. In spite of all the good and tasty food offered to me by various families, the Lord graced me to eat only what was needed. Overeating has been dealt with. To me this is a big break through. Such a change can happen only by the Lord's mercy. What I have been trying for years has now become a reality. I hardly try to control my diet this time too, but it was simply under control.

This reminds me of various addiction people have been under bondage. Addiction is addiction, be it of good things or bad things. Food addiction is as bad as drug addiction. All are addictions. And the way to overcome is by the Lord's grace only. Change in anything is possible with the Lord's grace. This time I could experience it myself. Praise the Lord!

It does take the grace of God to undergo change for the better in any walk of life. At the right time, as one is longing and praying for, changes happens. The same applies to any habit. Even sleeping time and getting up time, my habit and timing has been changed. Praise the Lord for His wonder-working change.

Change is needed not just in spiritual matters, but much more in down to earth physical matters too. Even in things, which people deemed good.

Change for the better. Change by God's grace.
