Self-control
A person without self-control
is like a house with its doors and windows knocked out.Proverbs 25:28
Think about what would happen if a house had it’s doors and windows knocked out. It would open itself up to all kinds of bad things wondering in and out. Well, the same thing happens to us when we don’t have self-control. Even good things can turn bad when we don’t practice self-control. Too much chocolate or ice cream will make you sick…even too much exercise can be bad for you! Pretty much EVERYTHING can be bad for you if you don’t practice self-control. And if there’s an area you struggle with, try having an accountability partner, someone who holds you accountable on a regular basis about whatever it is that you struggling using self control in. There is power in accountability, and prayer!
