Stop Playing the Blame Game

In the Garden of Eden, the serpent deceived Eve into disobeying God and eating from the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil.  Eve shared the forbidden fruit with her husband, Adam, who willingly and knowingly chose to disobey God's command.  Nevertheless, when it was time to face the consequences, Adam placed all of the blame on Eve (Genesis 3).  As descendants of Adam and Eve, we invariably make the same mistakes they made.  Sometimes the enemy deceives us into disobeying God, but usually we enter into sin fully aware of what we're doing.  The result is the same now as it was then.  Our eyes are "opened" to the deceptive lust of the flesh when it's too late to make a better decision.  Instead of accepting responsibility and running to the throne of grace in repentance, we make excuses for our behavior and shift the blame to other people or things.
 
For example, the bag of weed wasn't yours.  You were just riding in the car with known drug dealers who happened to get pulled over and arrested.  Your mistress is pregnant because her birth control method failed.  Never mind the fact that you committed adultery.  You cheated on your diet because your husband brought donuts home or a friend took you out to lunch.  Immature people don't take responsibility for anything, especially their own behavior, but God says it's time to grow up and weigh every decision against His Word.  He will hold you accountable for every deed (Revelation 20:12-15).
 
If you truly want to become healthy and fit for life, you must accept the fact that others can and will continue to make unhealthy choices regarding food, even those living in your home.  While you may not have control over their behavior, you're completely responsible for your own.  As Adam was fully aware of his sin when he ate the forbidden fruit, you too, are guilty of willfully sinning against God every time you break your health and fitness plan now that you know He commands you in His Word to eat and drink for His glory (1 Corinthians 10:31) and honor Him with your body, which is the temple of the Holy Spirit, by taking care of it (1 Corinthians 6:20).
