Day 208

I am grateful for self-control.

While I am not as self-controlled as this poor doggy, I am thankful for this fruit of the Spirit when I do exercise it. Most of the time it's with food, but sometimes it's my mouth. I wish there was a do-over button...

This is the ninth of the nine fruits of the Spirit, but its position is in no way indicative of its importance. Lack of self-control has done massive damage to hearts and minds since the Garden of Eden. I pray for the wisdom to take advantage of this gift resident in my spirit.

Thank You, Lord, for this vital gift.
