If you watch the show regularly, you know that there is a lot of competition and game-play that goes on. However, there is one contestant that has played it fair for the most part. That contestant is Jessica. Jessica made it known from the start that she was there to get healthy whether she won the $250,000 or not. This week she had the opportunity to make that even clearer.
Jessica was the contestant to be voted off on this week's episode. Every other contestant to be voted off so far made it very clear that they were upset that they had to go home; but not Jessica. Although others were apologizing for voting her off, Jessica had a look of contentment on her face. She simply said, "I'm fine. I came here to learn." Jessica got it. She realized the ultimate purpose of "The Biggest Loser"--to start over; to start living a healthier lifestyle. The money is just an added bonus.
Just like there is more to "The Biggest Loser" than a check for $250,000, there is more to life than health, wealth and prosperity. Just like the money, those things are added bonuses as well. It is nice to have those things, but they are not necessities. We do not need a nice house, a luxury car, or even good health to succeed in life. The ultimate purpose in life is to please Almighty God. If we do that, we will have more than reached life's ultimate goal.
"And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God." -Romans 12:2
