"This isn't just a battle in the physical and mental realm. This battle is spiritual as well..." Made to Crave, p. 147 I keep reminding myself of this. Sometimes I feel silly that something so "physical" can be so hard for me. Shouldn't it be easier to just not eat certain foods? But, I am reminded, through this book, that God is doing a bigger work in me. He is using this to refine me. He is teaching me new things about Himself through this.

Yummy, Easy AND Healthy Snack!!
When I find something this good I have to share it with you! :) When I first saw this recipe on Pinterest, I was a little skeptical...just because I have found it a bit daunting to find recipes that fit all of my criteria!! ha!!
