Why Bother?

Read Isaiah 22-24

Isaiah 22:13 "And behold joy and gladness, slaying oxen, and killing sheep, eating flesh, and drinking wine: let us eat and drink; for to morrow we shall die."

One hundred years from now, what difference will it make how much we weighed? Who will care how many times we tried and failed to lose weight?

Perhaps we will be part of a statistic taught in history classes: how many people in 2013 were obese. Or how often people in 2013 tried and failed at diets, or how many exercised.

That’s why we want to be dieting and exercising to become healthier, not just to get down to a certain size. That's because we want to live our lives to the fullest, not bogged down by insecurities or limitations.
