Live like Jesus Christ in all humility and willingness to suffer to complete the will of the Father. Christ did not complain, he simply lived to please the Father, whatever it took. You cannot stop at just eliminating your old desires; you have to replace those old desires with godly new desires. You have heard of this parable taught by Jesus in Luke 11:24-26:<\/p>\n<p><em>\u201cWhen an evil spirit comes out of a man, it goes through arid places seeking rest and does not find it. Then it says, \u2018I will return to the house I left.\u2019 When it arrives, it finds the house swept clean and put in order. Then it goes and takes seven other spirits more wicked than itself, and they go in and live there. And the final condition of that man is worse than the first.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p>This person that Jesus was talking about had accomplished the first step\u00a0(made a decision to serve God) and the second step\u2026 they had repented and left the old behaviors behind. But they had not done the third step\u2026 put on the new self to be like Christ. By not filling the heart with the love of God, the wanton demons came back in and were seven times more wicked than before\u2014now more bingeing, more greed, and more lust than before. Like Ephesians 4:19 says, <em>\u201cHaving lost all sensitivity, they have given themselves over to sensuality so as to indulge in every kind of impurity, with a continual lust for more.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a title=\"The Tablet by Gwen Shamblin\" href=\"http:\/\/store.weighdown.com\/The-Tablet-P2473.aspx\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Read more in <\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/store.weighdown.com\/Weigh-Down-Works-P3296.aspx\">Weigh Down Works!\u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Put on the new life, be born again, and be a new creation by putting the Thin Eater behaviors and mindset into practice.
