Episode 134: Are You "Gracing" Yourself Into Gluttony?
How many times have you told yourself, “I’m just giving myself grace”—right after overeating or slipping into old habits? As Christian women, we know grace is one of the most beautiful gifts God has given us. But sometimes, we misplace it. Grace was never meant to excuse sin or keep us stuck in unhealthy cycles. Instead, it’s meant to lift us up and empower us to walk in righteousness.
In today’s episode, I’m sharing encouragement and scripture to help you keep grace in its proper place—strength for the journey, not a license for gluttony. Together we’ll look at what God’s Word says about grace, how to recognize when we’re using it as an excuse, and how to let grace lead us into freedom, wholeness, and health.
What you’ll learn in this episode:
✨ The difference between true grace and cheap excuses
✨ Why Romans 5:20 and Romans 6:1–2 remind us grace is not permission to keep sinning
✨ How to invite conviction without slipping into condemnation
✨ Practical ways to let grace guide your health journey toward strength and holiness
Scriptures mentioned:
- Romans 5:20
- Romans 6:1–2
- Hebrews 12:11
- Psalm 23:3
