Whenever I think about watching what we eat, I start to see symptoms pop up again, as if I had given power back to food, rather than to God, to sustain our health. It is for freedom that God has set us free, we will not be burdened again by a yoke of slavery (Galatians 5:1). Our faith is in God, not food, to sustain our lives! The same Spirit that raised Jesus from the dead lives in us and gives life to our mortal bodies (Romans 8:11). We will not return to Egypt, to the land where we were bound as slaves! We are free, and we will stay free! The Son has set us free, and we are free indeed! (John 8:36) I know that the verse refers to being free from sin, and I would point out that putting my faith in anything other than Jesus is sin. Jesus is my Savior. He's my Healer. He's my Provider. Bless the Lord, O my soul, praise His Holy Name, and forget not all His benefits, who forgives all my sins and heals all my diseases, who redeems my life from the pit and crowns me with love and compassion, who satisfies my desires with good things so that my youth is renewed like the eagles (Psalm 103:1-5). We are learning to trust in the Lord with all our hearts and lean not on our own understandings. In all our ways, we acknowledge Him, and He makes our paths straight. We do not see ourselves as wise apart from Christ, but rather, we fear the Lord and shun evil, for it brings health to our bodies and nourishment to our bones (Proverbs 3:5-8). He healed us, He saved us, so He is the One we praise! (Jeremiah 17:14)HomeschoolMamahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15174615542490806405noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1208390885018180319.post-4167589562531857742012-05-15T00:47:35.853-05:002012-05-15T00:47:35.853-05:00Tina Kim,
Yes! You always find answers in God...Tina Kim,<br /><br />Yes! You always find answers in God's Word! Ask, seek, find! I found the same verse in Romans, and it was one of the key verses to encourage me to stop worrying about the food. I felt like God was speaking directly to me about my situation and I listened. Be blessed, my friend, as you continue in Him.HomeschoolMamahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15174615542490806405noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1208390885018180319.post-69684149392510295902012-05-13T15:09:34.161-05:002012-05-13T15:09:34.161-05:00Thank you for sharing my comments on your blog! Wh...Thank you for sharing my comments on your blog! What a blessing! My son is doing well and it is such a joy for a mother to see her child so happy. We ate at a restaurant over the weekend and what freedom and joy it was not to worry about what food was going into him. I admit a bit of fear came over me at first, but then I was reminded to trust in the Lord. <br /><br />As I sought the Lord through Matthew 6:33, wondering what His kingdom was, He led me to Romans 14:17. "For the kingdom of God is not eating and drinking, but righteousness and peace and joy in the Holy Spirit." So true! You always find answers in God's Word!Tina Kimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15503511949648331365noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1208390885018180319.post-56836313752486263472012-05-11T23:27:19.156-05:002012-05-11T23:27:19.156-05:00Tina Kim,
Can I just tell you that your post made...Tina Kim,<br /><br />Can I just tell you that your post made me cry for joy! I could not stop sobbing and laughing. My family was just staring at me, wondering what was wrong with mom. We have rejoiced together over your son's healing and have given God the glory for His great gift to your son and to your family. Praise the Lord! I remember a previous comment that you posted about wanting to have a conversation with your son. Praise be to God that you are going to have many conversations with your son and that you get to share with him about God's grace towards him and his family through his healing. You are a wonderful mamma! Keep seeking the Lord and fighting for your family through prayer and through faith in the One who loves you all dearly.HomeschoolMamahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15174615542490806405noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1208390885018180319.post-32071044451870100502012-05-11T09:19:47.922-05:002012-05-11T09:19:47.922-05:00Hello, I've commented on your blog before. I j...Hello, I've commented on your blog before. I just want to tell you how much your blog has ministered to me - more then you'll ever know! I believe the Lord led me to your blog and through it, He has shown me great and mighty things beyond my imagination! Like yourself, I was so frustrated with the GAPS diet. I saw improvements in my son, but it was so difficult to maintain it and with every battle to get him to eat soups, it was deteriorating our relationship and killing my joy. After reading your blog post "The GAPS diet did NOT heal us" the Lord spoke to me through it that HE was the ultimate healer and not GAPS. He gave me specific passages through His Word and spoke through others as well. Yet, I was too scared to go off the diet (lack of faith). I was afraid of regression and that all the work I did with the diet would just fall apart if I took my son off. Time and time again, your blog would enter into my mind. I know the Lord was using your blog to minister to me. So finally, after repenting of my lack of faith, I took my son off the diet cold turkey. Can I say that not only was there no regression, but that my son improved all the more! His speech started to come together and his stools were getting better! Funny thing is, he started talking sooo much off the GAPS diet! I couldn't believe it! He's such a happy little boy that it brings joy to my heart. All glory to God! Your so right - He is the ultimate healer!<br /><br />Not only that, but before my son was healed, your blog inspired me to start seeking His kingdom and His righteousness FIRST - above my son's healing and all other things. God is so true to His Word. I began to seek Him and pray to know Him more - (whether or not my son would heal). If you take Matthew 6:33 literally, God holds His promise. All these other things will be added. I continued to pray for healing, but it was on the back burner compared to my prayer to know HIM more.<br /><br />I believe the Lord used your blog to bring healing to my son, but most of all, to inspire me to seek Him above all else. For the first time in 18 years of being a believer, I feel I've made a breakthrough in my spiritual life. Thank you for your precious blog!!! God used it to change my life and to come to know Him not only as the healer of our external sickness, but the healer of our souls!<br /><br />Please keep posting on your blog. I love your updates! God bless you, your family and your precious growing child inside you.<br /><br />To God be the glory!<br /><br />Tina KimTina Kimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15503511949648331365noreply@blogger.com
