Summary
Ever wonder why being consistent with your food, workouts, and motivation is SO hard?
Women email me daily with questions like...
"Why do I keep quitting?!"
"Why can't I be consistent? I do really well for a couple of weeks, but then I give up!"
"Why do I always start strong and then quit my fitness goals? How do I see it through?"
"How do you do it?!"
Sister, the answer is simple and I'm sharing it today on Episode 138 of the STRONG. CONFIDENT. HIS. Podcast HERE to discover How to be Consistent with Healthy Eating, Working Out, and Staying Motivated: 5 Steps to Overcome Quitting!!
I want to encourage you through a prayer I wrote for my new book, Fit God's Way.
Dear God,
The struggle to find the motivation to be consistent with my fitness goals has been a battle all my life. But in You, I am not a quitter. I am an Overcomer (1 John 5:5). Your Word says, "forgetting what lies behind and straining toward what is ahead, I can press on toward the goal to win the prize for which you have called me in Christ Jesus" (Philippians 3:13–14).
Fill me with Your presence, Father. I want to forget my past failures and recognize that I have this treasure in a jar of clay to show that this all-surpassing power is from You and not from me (2 Corinthians 4:7). Today, I'm lying down every time I've quit in the past. I declare that I am done with being a poor steward of my body. No matter what comes, I'm pressing on and promising to rejoice in hope, be patient in tribulation, and be constant in prayer (Romans 12:12).
When the trials come. The enemy tests me, I will hold onto Your Word that says, "You keep him in perfect peace whose mind is stayed on you because he trusts in you" (Isaiah 26:3). By the power of the Holy Spirit working in me, I will cross the finish line of my fitness goals and give You all the glory by saying, "I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith" (2 Timothy 4:7).
Father God, it brings me to my knees to know that I did not choose You. Still, You chose me and appointed me to go and bear fruit, and that my fruit should remain, that whatever I ask You in the name of Jesus, You will give to me (John 15:16). I'm asking and believing and trusting in You alone to empower me to press on and have victory over my fitness, my wholeness, my calling, my everything.
In Jesus' name, amen.
Remember you are Strong. Confident. His.
God bless you and your family.
With so much love,
