Freedom Works!!!

 

What Is Freedom Works???
Freedom Works is a Biblical Study on what God really says about food and eating. Our body is the Temple of the Holy Spirit and God is very specific about what His Word says about food.

This is a Bible Study done on food. The main focus is to Glorify God through how we eat. It is a Biblical approach to eating. While this is nothing new, it focuses our attention on Jesus and not on the food.

1 Corinthians 6:19-20 NIV
"Do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit, who is in you, whom you have received from God? You are not your own; you were bought at a price. Therefore honor God with your body."


  About Me...
My name is Kelly Smith and I wrote 'Freedom Works!!!' from my own experience from losing weight. This is what God showed me through His Word, the Bible. And this is my personal testimony about my journey with losing weight....

I have struggled for many years with losing weight. As a mom of  seven children, pregnancy was the means of a lot of weight added to my small frame. At only 5 foot 2.5 inches, it didn't take much to be a size 18! With the birth of my sixth child, I weighed in on the scale at a whopping 205 the day I gave birth! I was exhausted from all the weight.  I just couldn't carry my own body any more, let alone a baby too.

After Silas was born, I started to apply Biblical principals to my life concerning food. I saw in scripture that Jesus declared all food clean and that the Heavenly Father made me uniquely. I saw that the way God made me was not like what man was telling me to eat and that everyone was uniquely made by the Father so no two individuals would need the same types or amounts of food.

After Silas was born, I started my journey. I lost 20 pounds in two weeks, only to continue to lose more by the six week mark. When Silas was 6 months old, I had lost 50 pounds! That was totally amazing for me! I never struggled to lose the weight, it just kept falling off! By the time Silas was a year, I had lost 75 pounds. Although the weight loss slowed down, it still didn't stop until I found out I was pregnant with baby #7 this past March, 2001. I was wearing a size small, 6-8!

In January of 2001, God lead me to write down what I did in the form of a devotion book. I have written how I lost weight and have taught this class at my local church. I have seen others starting to lose and Glorifying God through their bodies, the Temple of the Holy Spirit. This is a journey and I have had some lose up to 10 pounds in 2 weeks! This is an
incredible testimony to God's faithfulness when we seek Him instead of food.
