Do you have a love hate relationship with food? If you answered yes, I want to start by saying, I have been there; And chances are if you are in that place, you have also been on a diet in your lifetime.
Now, what if I told you it is possible to have a healthy relationship with food, and never go on a diet again?
I believe this is not only possible, but it is how God intended us to live. In fact, I believe God intended food to be enjoyable! Not only did He take the time to make different types...
I absolutely love Matthew 11:28-30 when Jesus says, “Come to Me, all who are weary and heavily burdened [by religious rituals that provide no peace], and I will give you rest [refreshing your souls with salvation]. Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me [following Me as My disciple], for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest (renewal, blessed quiet) for your souls. For My yoke is easy [to bear] and My burden is light.”
In order to really fall in love with this passage, it’s...
Seems a bit of an odd question doesn’t it? I find though that so many people struggle with this very thing. Many people find prayer – the gift of talking with God – to be unfamiliar and sometimes very uncomfortable.
I often hear from the people that I mentor that they really don’t “know how” to pray. They are almost looking for a formula for getting it “right.” Or, equally common is to hear people worrying that they’re praying for the “wrong things,” or feel...
What to Do When You Don't Feel Beautiful by Sarah Shaffer
I just want to feel skinny and pretty - recently, that was my honest thought.
Do you ever just want to feel “skinny”? Do you ever just want to “feel” pretty? Do you ever just want the struggle to subside and satisfaction with yourself to increase? Do you ever just want to look in the mirror and be pleased with what you see? If you answered yes to any of these, I understand. I’ve been working my way through that myself lately. I think it...
Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things.- Philippians 4:8
Have you ever had one of "those days" where you just don’t like what you see in the mirror?!? Or perhaps it has been a while since you have felt confident with the woman you see reflecting back at you. I could be that you have a certain body part that you wish you...
Many women live their entire lives in bondage to food and their weight, never discovering the keys to unlock the chains. God has given us everything we need to unlock our freedom and live a victorious life (see John 10:10), but it takes more than willpower to live the abundant life He provided!
If you feel like you are in bondage to food or your weight, you can be released from this bondage and experience the joy of a balanced and free life...and it all begins when we run to Jesus, and start...
If you knew that there was a severe storm headed your direction, would you prepare for it? Most of us would probably say, “Yes! I would prepare.”
I live in Colorado, so I have prepared for many winter snow storms. If I knew one was imminent, I’d prepare by going to the store to stock up on food. I’d make sure I had candles and warm clothes in case the power went out. I’d charge my handheld devices. The opportunity to prepare is the advantage of knowing the storm is coming. It’s pretty...
Just as through the disobedience of the one man the many were made sinners, so also through the obedience of the one man the many will be made righteous. - Romans 5:19
Throughout scripture, we read accounts of how people’s obedience effected not only their own lives but often an entire nation. The greatest example of this is Jesus himself. Christ’s obedience to death on the cross made a way for us to be called children of God. Likewise, our choices can have a lasting impact on both our own...
If you are new to Dashing Dish, or you missed the big announcement, I am currently 18 weeks pregnant with a little girl! My husband and I are overjoyed and so thankful to the Lord for this precious gift! As many of you know, this pregnancy is truly a gift to us, a miracle in fact…and the journey to getting pregnant was a long and difficult one.
God taught my husband and I so many things in the season of waiting, and I want to share it with all of you...Because so often throughout life we are...
My favorite thing about Christmas is the celebration of Jesus coming to earth to save us! Christmas can be a time of the greatest hope, peace, and healing when we come to understand the ultimate message behind Christmas, which is the great love and redeeming power of our Heavenly Father! Merry Christmas everyone! xo Katie
