HEALTHY EATING HABIT

TEXT: PROVERBS 23:19-23

MEMORY VERSE: “For the drunkard and the glutton shall come to poverty: and drowsiness shall clothe a man with rags” (PROVERBS 23:21).

Many youths “love” food. They just cannot have enough of eating. Good food is essential to good living, no question. But while eating to live is the practice of achievers, living to eat is the undoing of failures. Overeating is as bad as junk eating and many youths are guilty of both.

Queue up at a fast food joint – for junk foods loaded with fats, salt and sugar, comfort foods with very little health value – and you are considered smart. But are you, really? The _American Centre For Disease Control_ (February, 2021) reports that twenty-one percent of 12 – 19 year olds are obese. Meanwhile, obesity is the trigger for many life-threatening diseases.

Youths, cultivate a healthy eating habit by:

(i) regulating your mealtimes,

(ii) reading the labels on packaged foods,

(iii) eating the quantity of food appropriate for you,

(iv) regulating the urge to take snacks between meals,

(v) deliberately eating slowly, your brain needs time to calibrate your fullness report,

(vi) drinking lots of water about 30 minutes before and after meals.

Also, take in the soul food (God’s word) daily.

QUOTE: Living to eat is the undoing of failures.

CHALLENGE: Avoid overeating.

PRAYER: Jesus, give me grace for self-discipline
