Jeremiah 40:5 "Now
while he was not yet gone back, he said, Go back also to Gedaliah the son of
Ahikam the son of Shaphan, whom the king of Babylon hath made governor over the
cities of Judah, and dwell with him among the people: or go wheresoever it
seemeth convenient unto thee to go. So the captain of the guard gave him
victuals and a reward, and let him go."
Some of our strongest
motivators may be food. If we deprive ourselves now, we hope that one day we
will be able to eat as we please.
We might reward ourselves
with a one-time treat. We might promise ourselves a brownie before we go to bed
if we exercise and stick to our diet the rest of the day.
But victuals may not be
good motivators for long. We may too easily find ourselves slipping back into
the same food patterns that got us into trouble in the first place.
