Self-Control

Have you ever reached your boiling point??? You know, that point where you have taken all you can take and stayed as calm as you possible can and you just lose all self control and blow up and do all sorts of things that you would not normally do. I can say I have hit my boiling point more times than I would ever like to admit.

The last fruit of the spirit we are going to talk about is SELF CONTROL, easily defined as control yourself :) It is more than controlling outbursts of anger, it is controlling what you say, how you do things, and not doing things that are wrong. So how much control do you have? Do you know the key to having more self control??? The key is to have MORE of God and less of us in us. How does that happen? It happens by spending time with Him, reading the Bible and going to places that will encourage and challenge you to grow in your relationship with Him. Check out the perfect example of Self Control: Jesus in John 8:1-11. Enjoy!
