Galatians 5:22-23 (NKJV) 22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, 23 gentleness, self-control. Against such there is no law.
Boy, the fruit sounds so great!
Can we just picture it? God’s children all walk together in this. It makes me happy just thinking about it. What a beautiful way to live!
There is only one thing that stops us from walking completely in this; our flesh.
That’s right. Our own self.
Talk about control over what we can do and not do. We have it in us, but sometimes, as we all know, it’s hard to control our feelings.
We’ve got to be wise.
Proverbs 29:11 (NKJV) 11 A fool vents all his feelings, but a wise man holds them back.
Our emotions like to have control. And if we let them, they can take us down the opposite road of what we should be doing, saying and feeling.
We need to hold back our emotions at times and tell them how they are going to behave. Not the other way around.
