Lisa Peters

My name is Lisa Peters and I was according to the world "a good Christian girl! " Raised in church all of my life, active in the youth group, choir, drama presentations, teacher of Sunday School, and camp counselor, etc. I went to Christian schools and was very active in all of that.  I thought that I lived a life following Jesus Christ as my Lord and Savior. However, inside my heart I did not have the fruit of the Spirit that is talked about in the book in Galatians:  love, joy peace, kindness, gentleness, self control,. At times I had these things, however I had a lustful heart and mind.   I was never satisfied with life.  I was an angry wife and mother. I grew up a big girl and was as a young 5th grader wanting to lose weight!!! I did try other methods of losing weight. In high school, I took diet pills and tried losing weight drinking only water, however gaining it all back. Later in life I tried measuring my food and weighing it all out, and that didn't work. These diets were not changing my heart, just the food portions. I lived on slim fast, and still was heavy!!! For anxiety I was prescribed an anti-depressant. I then started the Weigh Down classes and I learned that I was heavy and anxious and angry and greedy due to a heart that was never satisfied starting with the food!!!  I finally learned how to eat and then all the while learned to have a relationship with God and come clean with what was in my heart!! We became members of Remnant Fellowship in 2000 and life has changed. We are being taught through a godly leadership how to have a 100% 24/7/365 relationship with God that is genuine. My marriage is healed, I love my children, and there is no anger in our family.  Our children love God and live for Him and they are TEENAGERS!! We know now what it means to be followers of our precious Lord and Savior Jesus Christ and it is beautiful. My husband and I have lost weight. My husband Cliff has lost 35lbs and myself  20 and it has been off for over 8 years. I praise God for the opportunity to share with the world this very exciting truth!!! I pray that people can hear this message so they too can be set free and permanently change!!
