Galatians 5::23

SELF-CONTROL is not a highly discussed in relation to God. Yet, think about it. If God didn’t have self-control, He probably would have wiped us off the face of the earth. If self-control was not one of Christ’s attributes, He would have called down legions of angels to secure His freedom in the Garden of Gethsemane.  He would have turned the lash on those lashing Him. But our God is a God of self-control. And because He has invested His life in us in the form of the Holy Spirit, He has given us the opportunity to exercise self-control. 

Lord, Thank You for not only being a God of SELF-CONTROL, but for also giving us Your Spirit by which we can exercise self-control. You are an awesome God!
