"Let not sin therefore reign in your mortal body to make you obey its passions. Do not present your members to sin as instruments for unreigheousness, but present yourselves to God as those who have been brought from death to life, adn your members to God as instuments for righteousness. For sin will have no dominion over you, since you are not under law but under grace."
My passion is food. I have other passions, but this is the one I get to experience everyday. I get to eat, and create, and experience food on a daily basis. This is a challenge for me. I put it ahead of God so often. I think about my next meal, where it will come from, and what it will hold for my passion. It is a sin the way I think about and experience food. I am working on getting that under control. Today I did not have complete control. The day started off well enough, but then I found a bakery, and a turkey sandwich. While being delicious... It was really too big of a sandwich. I should have stopped eating it. I shouldn't have ordered the pastries to go. I should have saved some of the food for tomorrow. Tomorrow will be better. Starting right now I will not let this sin reign in my mortal body.
