Food and body image issues can be confusing and distracting so in today's daily prayer we pray for freedom. One of Heather's biggest struggles was to know who she was serving. The temptation from Diet Culture and messages all around was to serve her body and herself and listen to the god (little g) god of body image and appearance who said that if she looked a certain way, then she would be free. Today, Heather digs into what scripture says about the pull to serve a different master and how recognizing this pull was a pivotal part of her freedom journey.

Today's verse and action step:

Today's verse: Luke 16:13, "No servant can serve two masters, for either he will hate the one and love the other, or he will be devoted to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve God and money."

Action: Look over your calendar and bank account statements and make an honest assessment of how you spend your time and money. Does your spending look different from how someone who’s not a Christ follower lives or spends? What can you do to allocate your time and money differently, so it’s clear who you serve?
