A Pleasing Aroma

In the animal sacrifices spoken of in the Old Testament, and specifically the fellowship offering, the fat of the animal was always reserved for God. It was never consumed by the priest or by the worshipper. It belonged to God.

This is a principle we can use to help remind us of our need to avoid fat. As you sacrifice fat in your diet, give it to God. Make a point of saying that you gladly sacrifice this part of your food to God so that you can be a temple that is pleasing to Him. He will reward your decision. Your sacrifice will be a sweet-smelling savor to God!

Begin today to give that fat to God, the fat in your foods and the fat in your body. He alone can change you so that you can become all He desires you to be!
