Saturday night I indulged in two of my favorite treats. Stuffed crust pizza, and Vanilla Coke!

It was a well deserved treat after a busy week….

But it used to be a regular part of my diet!!

During Bible College days a large pizza and a two-liter soft drink was the normal meal on Friday night. Sometimes I ate it more than once! This led to being overweight, and very unhealthy.

While becoming healthy and losing weight following Bible College I realized you cannot live off junk food.

well technically you can, but you’ll regret it!

The interesting thing is we usually don’t apply that principle beyond our eating habits.

By this I mean just like eating a large pizza and drinking a two-liter of soda makes my body unhealthy. A diet of streaming movies, scrolling on my phone, and social media makes my mind unhealthy. And a diet of an unbibical worldview makes me unhealthy spiritually.

Make no mistake friends….we are surrounded by spiritual as well as mental junk food.

And some of us are feasting on it.

Surprisingly Saturday nights pizza wasn’t as enjoyable as it used to be. This is because I eat a diet of healthier foods that properly fuel my body. So the junk no longer satisfied.

There is nothing wrong with social media or watching something on TV friends. But when our plate is full of junk food, we won’t have an appetite for real food.
