The book of Joshua ends with words that accompany throw pillows and door signs throughout Christian homes. “As for me and my house, we will serve the Lord.” While this is a great family motto with good intentions, we are more often than not unintentional with these vows. We often fall into the behaviors within the theme of Judges, “And every man did what was right in his own eyes.”

May is mental health awareness month. Recognizing a need doesn't mean we will do anything about it. Don't just claim Spiritual, Mental, Emotional, and Physical health. Find support, encouragement, and motivation don't just have "the good intentions."

Prisoner of His Appetite

During the fourteenth century Raynald III, was a duke in what is now Belgium. As the result of a violent quarrel, Raynald’s younger brother Edward successfully revolted against him. When Edward captured Raynald he built a room around him featuring windows and a door and promised him that the day he left the room his title and property would be returned to him.

The problem with this arrangement was that Raynald was grossly overweight and could not fit through the openings in the room. Raynald needed to lose weight before he could leave the room. Edward knew that his older brother could not control his appetite and sent him delicious food every day. As you may imagine, Raynald grew fatter during this time.

Anytime someone accused Duke Edward of treating Raynald cruelly he said: “My brother is not a prisoner. He may leave when he so wills.”

Raynald stayed in that room for ten years and wasn’t released until after Edward died in battle. By then his health was so ruined he died within a year. He was a prisoner of his own appetite.

Change is not only difficult, but impossible if we can't confess our need for change. Confession comes with acceptance of a plan and action.

If nothing ever changes, then nothing will ever change.

Work brings profit, but mere talk leads to poverty! Proverbs 14:23
