My dear wife

(1/3) > >>

G. Driggs:
Hi all, please pray for my dear wife Della, she is trying to lose weight. I have told her to pray about it and that it is all in God's hands. She has always been very active, never lazy, and she does so much for my family and I, and I so want this for her. She is on her feet most of the day doing all she can for us and it is taking a toll on her. I love her very much for all that she does, and if it was not for God putting her in my life I would probably be lost, or worse. I try to tell her to just relax and rest sometimes, but she does not always listen. Im worried about her. Please pray God will enable/cause her to lose some weight, most importantly ask that His will be done and not my own. Thank you all very much.

Peace & Love
G.Driggs

I will pray for her George. I have battled that for years. I was active and worked hard to George. I think some people think if you are fat you are lazy. Thats, not true.

In His Love,
Marlene

Nelson:
Hi folks,


* "Do not let your adornment be merely outward--arranging the hair, wearing gold, or putting on fine apparel--rather let it be the hidden person of the heart, with the incorruptible beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is very precious in the sight of God" (1Pe 3:3, 4)

* "Who can find a virtuous wife? For her worth is far above rubies...Charm is deceitful and beauty is passing, But a woman who fears the LORD, she shall be praised. Give her of the fruit of her hands, And let her own works praise her in the gates." (Pr 31:1, 30-31)
Why do people think that fat people are lazy? In fact, why would anyone make any such judgment of anyone at all? The truth be known; these are the ways of the flesh. The natural man can only see things that are natural, but spiritual people see the things of the spirit. God has made us as we are that we will stop looking at the things which are outward and to the inward things, the things that are of great value in the eyes of God.

I can understand your feelings (especially as I carry a few extra pounds myself) and many times areas of my own physique have bothered me. But then I think to myself, 'If God accepts me as I am, why should it matter what others think?'

It takes spiritual maturity to see with eyes of faith and to not be deceived by the flesh. My prayer for yous is that the Lord will give you the eyes and ears and the words of comfort to yourselves and to those you love, but ultimately only spiritual eyes will find joy in these circumstances because fleshly eyes will seek to put right the things of the flesh.

May the Lord's will be your pleasure for both yours, and His sake, that we may all rejoice with Him in His workmanship.

Grace and peace to you and yours

Nelson

I know what you mean Marlene, most of the overweight people I know are very active, hard working people. Me I have been a skinny bone most of my life, and lazy for the better part of it, so go figure. ???
