July 7


Hebrews 11:6 - NLT
So, you see, it is impossible to please God without faith.  Anyone who wants to come to him must believe that there is a God and that he rewards those who sincerely seek him.

Tim always said that God really didn't help him much. The trouble was, Tim never did much for God, either. He rarely prayed, hardly went to church, and didn't even own a Bible. When someone suggested that Tim might go on a diet, he said dieting didn't do any good. Tim pursued a diet about as apathetically as he pursued God. We will never succeed in anything unless we dedicate ourselves-body, mind, and soul-to achieving our goal. A deep and driving faith can be the perfect model for our diets. If we will strive to lose weight as much as we strive after God, He will bless our effort.

Today's thought: I'm giving everything I've got to losing weight!

Do you have a tendency to taste everything while you're cooking a meal?  Try brushing your teeth before you begin preparing the meal.

Mock Ice Cream Sandwiches

1 box chocolate graham crackers
1 tub Lite Cool Whip

Break a rectangle chocolate graham cracker into two squares.  Squish a tablespoon of the Cool Whip between the two squares.  Wrap in Saran Wrap and freeze.  Repeat with all the graham crackers.

When they freeze, the graham cracker softens slightly and it's almost like an ice cream sandwich.
