Replace the Lies

"I have to mentally replace the lies using some of my favorite verses to remind myself of just how filling God’s love really is." ~ Lysa TerKeurst (From her book, Made to Crave).

Drug of Choice

‎"Someone had to learn the discipline of giving up some things and that someone was me. And those 'things' were poor food choices that were sabotaging my body, my mental energy, and even my spirit.

Food had become like a drug. And honestly, it's a good drug of choice for a Christian woman. Every church event I attended readily provided my drug out in the open with no hesitation or judgment."

~ Lysa TerKeurst (Made To Crave)

Cravings ~ Blessing or Curse

"Cravings. Are they a curse or a blessing? The answer to that depends on what we're craving. And what we're craving will always depend on whatever we're consuming...the object of our desire or God and His truth." ~ Lysa TerKeurst (Made to Crave)

Created to Be...

"Holiness means to be set apart for noble use. The very next choice we make isn't really about whether or not to eat chips, cookies, or French fries smothered in chili and processed cheese. It's about whether we are going to stay away from those things that are not beneficial for what we are created to be." ~ Lysa TerKeurst (Made to Crave)

What Happens When Women Say Yes to God

‎"I am not a woman who should be labeled unable. I am a woman on a journey of learning how to make sure my reactions won't deny Christ's presence in me. I am a woman who says yes to God not because my emotions and reactions are always perfect. No, I say yes to God because He is perfectly able to forgive me, love me, remind me, challenge me and show me how to weather trials in ways that prove His Spirit resides in me. I remind myself often that people don't care to meet my Jesus until they meet the reality of Jesus in my life." ~ Lysa TerKeurst (Made to Crave: Chapter 4, What Happens When Women Say Yes to God)
