So I have begun to read the book and so far it is very good. The author suggests that you read the entire book before starting to implement her 12 keys. This is because you should do each key in order, and spend as much time as you need on each key. Once you feel you are successful then you go on to the next key.
I will briefly describe each key as I read them. Then when the book is done I will continue to post my progress, however the posts will only come as I complete each key.
Key One: Let God do the heavy lifting.
For this key Joyce recommends taking one step to building your relationship with God. The basis of a happy, healthy life all depends on Jesus.
Joyce wrote about how willpower is made to be such an important part of life (by the world). Also everyone believes the lie that you can be succesfull as long as you have a strong willpower. However, how many of us have been on a diet, at first your willpower is strong because you are determined. Then slowly the willpower starts to fade, until its gone.
Only God's power is strong enough. There is no way we can do anything on our own. If you try, you will fail. God will not fail, His power will not fade. Cast your burdens onto God. His yoke is easy, and His burden is light. Let Him show us the way. Never believe the lie that your willpower alone is strong enough, because you will always be disappointed.
