Many of us need to get a grip and regain our self-control. How do we do this? After all, we are in a very active battle between impulsivity, the flesh and doing God’s will. We regain or maintain self-control by being led by the Spirit. 

“But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, forbearance, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control. Against such things there is no law. Those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires. Since we live by the Spirit, let us keep in step with the Spirit.” Gal 5:22-25

Remember, “Like a city whose walls are broken through is a person who lacks self–control.” Proverbs 25:28
