Lord,
I have engaged in mindless eating for many years, including today. Help me to take an assessment of my health and my life overall. I don't know why I engage in such mindless eating. Sure the food is good, but like I have said, the food doesn't love me back. As a result, my stomach hurts. I am not feeling that well. First I had a hurt back from all of the exercise. Now I have a stomach ache from probably all of the food that I have consumed. I ask that You would give me guidance today so that I will spiritually press toward the goal that You have set out for me that I may act, think, feel, and do what a Christian is supposed to be like. Give me not only the wisdom, but the opportunity to be the believer that You called me to be. There are times when I don't know who I am. Fill me with Your Holy Spirit. Show me who I am and what His plan for me is.
I also tend to procrastinate. I realize that that it probably stems from having self esteem issues. I thought going at it alone would help me because I tend to do things in secret. On the other hand, I ask You for Your wise counsel. I need a support system to help me deal with the issues that are at hand. I wish I knew what I could do. Help me to do what my mind thinks is hard. I don't follow all of my plans nor do I take the time to make an assessment of things. Do You believe that taking a long hard look at myself and making assessments would be productive? If not, then show me what to do, for I am clueless.
I need You. I ask that You would help me overcome mindless eating. Help me to overcome being overwhelmed. Help me to do things one at a time. I will bless You at all times. I praise You, Lord. I also thank You for answering this prayer.
In Jesus' name,
Amen
