“So that no one would be unsettled by these trials. For you know quite well that we are destined for them.” — 1 Thessalonians 3:3

Trials are never easy. Life can be hard. Sometimes those difficult seasons leave us feeling anxious, discouraged, or tempted to turn to food for comfort.

Paul reminds us that trials are a part of life, but they don't have to shake our faith. God is with us through every difficulty, giving us the strength to keep going one step at a time. We are also blessed to walk this journey together, encouraging one another in our faith and in our recovery from overeating. What a gift it is to have people who care for us and a God who loves us so deeply.

Dear Lord, thank You for never leaving us, even in the hardest times. Help us to turn to You instead of food when life feels overwhelming. Strengthen our faith, encourage our hearts, and remind us that we never walk alone. We are so grateful for Your love, Your grace, and Your constant presence. In Jesus' name, amen.
