Inspiration and Motivation
Overeating defiles your own body, the Temple of the Holy Spirit with medical problems such as back pain, high blood pressure, diabetes, and heart disease.
•
When you eat anything to make yourself “feel good,” you reject and defile divine grace, the only source of goodness, and you subordinate the desire for holiness to the desire for self-satisfaction.
•
Overeating scandalizes children with the impious example of self-indulgence and gluttony.
•
Overeating causes you to carry around excess weight, thus wasting energy that could be used for productive labor.
•
Overeating drains the environment of needed resources. Food consumed in excess could be better used to feed the starving poor. Oversized clothing that covers an obese body could be better used to clothe the naked. Fuel wasted in transporting an obese body could be better used to warm poor souls shivering in the cold.
I did what is known as a big motivator. I put a picture of my face on a thinner body for the fridge and the car. Hope this will inspire me more! I tried to add to my photos but it didn't work.
