Preston's Weight Loss Blog
This is a record of what I have learned while losing weight.
Entry for October 31, 2006

Well, I did gain a couple of pounds over the weekend at the Bluegrass Festival. But, I also added another notch in my belt this morning as well. So, I am still heading in the right direction.


Lesson learned: I was studying the prayer of Jabez found in 1 Chronicles 4:10. It says, "And Jabez called on the God of Israel saying, 'Oh, that you would bless me indeed, and enlarge my territory, that Your hand would be with me, and that You would keep me from evil, that I may not cause pain!' So God granted him what he requested."  I was reading a book that came out in 2000 called The Prayer of Jabez by Bruce Wilkerson. The book goes into what Jabez prayed for in detail, but doesn't go into why Jabez prayed in detail. Jabez didn't want to cause anybody any pain. His name can be translated as pain. One of the ways that we can not cause anybody any pain is to maintain our health.
