We all sometimes get really discouraged and think that we can not do
something we should do...It can be whatever:mow the lawn, clean the house,
exercise, eat in a healthy way, be friendly to people who are not nice to you...
But God has given us a spirit of self-control so we can actually choose what
we think about any situation.
"From
scanned images of the brain we see that we can control brain activity with focused, disciplined thinking & focused choice!"
- Dr. Caroline Leaf
Discipline is required any time you are forming a new habit...so it may not be always easy,but it's good to remember that self-control is a freedom, not a bondage.And we are not alone!We can ask God to help us to be self-controlled.We can ask God to strengthen our minds and thoughts! We can choose self-control!
For this very reason, make every effort to add to your faith goodness; and to goodness, knowledge; and to knowledge, self-control; and to self-control, perseverance; and to perseverance, godliness; and to godliness, mutual affection; and to mutual affection, love. -2 Peter 1:5-7
