Self-Control Vs Self-Indulgence

Self-Control vs Self-Indulgence

Rejecting wrong desires and

doing what is right

“But the fruit of the (Holy) Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control..." Galatians 5:22- 23

Am I pursuing things that are right?

Am I limiting my indulgence in

unhealthy food and activity?

Am I controlling my responses to unrighteous anger?

Am I asking the Lord to review and control my thoughts?

Am I acknowledging my weaknesses and asking the Lord for help?

Do I cry out to God for help in

overcoming temptations and addictions?

What steps can I take to help myself further develop the practice of self-control and create its many benefits?
