Why You Lose Control at Night: Binge Eating, Addiction, and Your Identity in Christ

Send us Fan MailWhy are you so disciplined at work, but lose control at night?That was my wake-up call recently. During the day, I’m structured, focused, and disciplined. But at night — especially when I’m alone — I realized I was using food to self-soothe, distract, and even entertain myself.And here’s what God showed me:It’s not a willpower problem. It’s an identity problem.In this message, I share:✅ How trauma shaped the way I viewed rest and why rest felt unsafe✅ Why “work you” has structure, but “off-work you” feels undefined or lost✅ How denial and self-soothing creep in at night (food, scrolling, drinking, etc.)✅ The revelation God gave me about building an “off-work identity in Christ”This isn’t about shame or more self-control. It’s about asking God: Who am I when the workday ends?📖 Course Mentioned: Journaling with God → https://elizabethlouis.io/products/journaling-with-god🙌 If this resonated, drop AMEN in the comments and share how God is redefining your identity in Him.Support the showPlease leave me a review on Apple Podcast!  ***LET'S CONNECT:***Checkout My Courses: Sign up for my Newsletter  Website:Facebook:Tik-Tok - Instagram: Youtube:  LinkedIn personal profile:
