| Ain't that the truth! |

I looked at the bible verse for the day, and it reminded me of how important is is for me to be diligent in practicing self-control, in other words, self-discipline.
It's entirely to easy to get distracted by the desires brought about by our own nature. Add to that the stimulus received from sources like TV, the radio (whether FM or satellite), and this thing called the internet, and it is no wonder why we miss the mark on a daily basis.
I'm as guilty as the next brother of allowing outside stimulus to steer me of my daily course, but, it is no excuse to allow it to persist.
I encourage every man, woman, or child reading this blog post to really ask themselves if what they are currently doing is drawing them closer to or further from the course set they've set.
Have you been diligent about fortifying the walls around your city, or are the invaders looting you of your dreams, desires, and resources.
Here's to being men and women of God strong in self-control and battle-ready at all times.
Blessings.
- Giovanni
25:28 A man without self-control is like a city broken into and left without walls. |
