The cheap thrills we get from selfish pleasures come crashing down, but the satisfaction that comes from knowing God and obeying his commands as a response of loving worship will last forever.
When have you been most satisfied and joyful? Building walls of self-control not only helps us to resist temptation, it helps us to choose the lasting delight of fellowship with Jesus. Each choice you make as like laying a stone in your wall. Choose Jesus today and continue building walls of self-control in the power of the Spirit.
Prayer: Thank you Lord for dealing with my passions and desires on the cross and for giving me a new life through the Holy Spirit, who is Lord and giver of life. Help me to sow to the Spirit as you work in me and practise the virtue of self-control so that I can enjoy you and glorify you more each day.
