Your appetite

You are what you eat.  It's a pretty much known fact that if one eats with discretion and consumes a good blend of the different food groups, that person will most likely be quite healthy.  If, on the other hand, one eats irregularly, and when doing so eats and drinks a lot of junk food, that person stands a good chance of eventually having health issues, including obesity.    We are what we eat.

It isn't just our bodies that have an appetite.  Two very specific parts of our bodies also have appetites.  They are our minds and our hearts.  If we consistently feed them junk, they will become junk.  If we consistently feed them the "good stuff", they will not only grow, but will grow healthily...not only of benefit for you, but more importantly for those you come in contact with.

As men, husbands and fathers we owe it to ourselves, our wives, our children, and our friends to be the best we can be and to continue growing in our walk toward being more Christ-like.  And to accomplish that we need only to pay strict attention to what we are feeding our minds and hearts...consistently.
 
And when you do that, you will find that your appetite for more will be more. 
 
You are what you eat.  Happy eating!!
