The Truth About Emotional Eating

1 Peter 5:6-10:” 6 Humble yourselves, therefore, under the mighty hand of God so that at the proper time he may exalt you, 7 casting all your anxieties on him, because he cares for you. 8 Be sober-minded; be watchful. Your adversary the devil prowls around like a roaring lion, seeking someone to devour. 9 Resist him, firm in your faith, knowing that the same kinds of suffering are being experienced by your brotherhood throughout the world. 10 And after you have suffered a little while, the God of all grace, who has called you to his eternal glory in Christ, will himself restore, confirm, strengthen, and establish you.”Physical hunger: gradual-satisfied by many foods-stops when full.Emotional hunger: urgent-specific cravings-tied to stress/emotion-often leads to guilt.Lord, help us stop turning to food for what only You can provide.
