Pray To Be Thin – Heart And Soul

My two part series on, “Pray To Be Thin” generated much comment. The post below is typical.

Dear Ted,

I think what Gwen Shamblin is doing is inspiring. I have been over weight for a portion of my adult life. I have tried so many other ways of losing weight and I do, but I put the weight back on. In today’s world many want to blame others for their problems. Many turn away from Christ because they feel He has failed them. They pray for His help in many of their daily issues, but when they don’t get the help they think they should they blame God and turn away from Him.

Gwen Shamblin has the right idea. She is combining her love for God and helping people lose the weight. I listened to what Matt Bauer said and that is his opinion. I don’t think he has ever struggled with being heavy and has no idea of the everyday struggles overweight people go through. The desire to eat is there even when you are not hungry. People say it just takes will power. Well, I for one think divine intervention can help. Saying a prayer builds a stronger relationship with God and through this helps you not to indulge in food when you really not hungry. What a great way to build a relationship with the Lord and lose weight at the same time. I am going to do what Gwen Shamblin is inspiring many people to do. I have a relationship with God, but also with food. This will help me to build an even better relationship and lose the weight.

Thank you for reporting on this amazing woman who loves people and God.

Sincerely,
Sue K.
