Self-Control

As I shared with many of you, self-control is a fruit that I pray for every day!  For those of you who were not able to come that Wednesday here are a few things that we discussed.
Proverbs 25:28 "Like a city whose walls are broken down is a man who lacks self-control."
"Any out-of-control area in our lives, no matter how big or small, is an open invitation to the enemy.  Believe me, he has memorized every strength and weakness in our lives.  He is always on the lookout for that one crumbling section of your protective wall, that one out-of-control area, where he will enter and play havoc in your life.  His weapons are your greatest temptations.  Your wounds are guilt, shame, frustration, and failure; his goal is to hold you captive for as long as possible."  That was taken from Beth Moore's study on the Fruit of the Spirit.
Remember that self-control is a fruit of the Spirit, we need to pray that the Spirit fill our lives and fill us with this fruit.
