Thoughts for Today
In the United States, an estimated six to eleven million people struggle with eating disorders. Distorted body image and denial of actual body size can trigger eating disordered behavior. Most people falling into the trap of eating disorders like bulimia and anorexia are preoccupied with food and their body image.

People with this preoccupation usually let their body define who they are. They exaggerate the importance of slimness and are terrified of gaining weight. They are dissatisfied with their body to the point that their day-to-day state of well-being is affected.

Consider This...
Does this describe you or someone you care about? Consider asking God to help you see yourself through his eyes. He loves you unconditionally. He created you in his image. In fact, the Bible tells us that God formed our inmost being in our mother's womb with his plan already in place for our lives. He made you special and unique, equipped with the gifts you need to accomplish his purpose for your journey.

When you look in the mirror, remember that you are viewing someone very special, designed by God. You self-worth does not depend on how much you weigh or even on what you accomplish. You are special because God created you and because he loves you.
