Sinking Deeper

Read Jeremiah 37-39

Jeremiah 38:6 "Then took they Jeremiah, and cast him into the dungeon of Malchiah the son of Hammelech, that was in the court of the prison: and they let down Jeremiah with cords. And in the dungeon there was no water, but mire: so Jeremiah sunk in the mire."

We may wish we had started losing weight a long time ago. We might remember those days when we were only ten pounds or so overweight.

If only we had gotten serious back then! Ten pounds are easier to lose than the mountain we have to lose now.

But we didn’t take such a small excess seriously. Instead, we sank deeper into the abyss of overweight.
