S3. E11. Too busy to eat? That's the problem.
Apr 2200:09:06Tap to summarizeFeeling too busy to eat lunch? That might not be a time problem—it might be a trust problem. In this episode, we’re reframing mealtimes as moments of consecration—time set apart for the Lord—and why skipping meals is actually pulling you into self-reliance instead of dependence on God. Anchored in Leviticus 20:7, we’re diving into what it really means to be set apart and how that applies to your daily rhythms. When you choose to pause, nourish your body, and invite God into your meals, you’re not falling behind—you’re positioning yourself for supernatural strength, clarity, and provision. You’re not too busy to eat… you’re too busy NOT to. In This Episode, You’ll Learn: What “consecration” actually means and how it applies to your meals Why skipping meals is rooted in self-reliance, not discipline How taking a lunch break is an act of trust and surrender The connection between nourishment, productivity, and God’s presence How mealtimes can help reduce overeating and emotional eating Why God’s design for your body includes rhythm, rest, and refueling Ready For Support?

Jesus meets us in our shame with compassion, but He doesn’t let us stay there. He calls us higher—into victory, into freedom, and into a mindset that reflects His truth over our feelings. In This Episode, You’ll Learn: The real root of body image struggles (hint: it’s deeper than your body) How fear of man keeps you stuck in insecurity What it means to set your mind on things above How Jesus leads you out of shame and into victory Practical questions to ask God to heal your body image Ready For Support?
