Tell Somebody

Read Exodus 21-24

Exodus 24:3 "And Moses came and told the people all the words of the Lord, and all the judgments: and all the people answered with one voice, and said, All the words which the Lord hath said will we do."

We have gone on diet after diet with few results, so we might be reluctant to tell anyone we’re trying to lose weight right now. We want to wait and see if this time it works—this time we’ll stick to it.

We decide to wait until other people notice we’re losing weight. Once someone comments that we look thinner, we can confess we’re dieting and exercising.

 

But we can tell others, even before we begin to “show.” Telling the right people, not the ones who want to sabotage us, but the ones who will support and encourage us, might give us a boost when we need it and keep us going.
