Top Highlights

“‘The chief end of man is to glorify God, and to enjoy Him forever.’¹ S” (Page 19)

“It wasn’t until I began to understand that God had something more important in mind than merely my looking good that I started to change and be thankful. God has taken this struggle of mine and turned it into blessing. He’s used it to get at strongholds of self-indulgence, worry, fear, and pride in my own heart and He’s produced fruit from it that comforts and encourages others. Because I now have this perspective, I’m able to rejoice over God’s goodness.” (Page 14)

“ Remember, our goal is not to look good outwardly; our goal is to be conformed to the image of Christ for God’s glory.” (Page 84)

“I’ve been looking for an outward change when all the while God wanted to change my heart” (Page 9)

“totally consumed by the tyranny of food and eating.” (Page 17)
