I am going for a run soon with my connection group. What an amazing idea that I thought no one would joinn in on. We had 13 last week and I expect another great group this morning. We are all of different running levels and that makes it fun. I get challenged a lot.
I have been thinking a lot about Galations 5:22-23 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control. Self control is something I think we need to think on and focus on more. We should challenge our bodies not to eat, drink or indulge in so many easily had pleasures. Opting instead to place ourselves in a disciplined life for the better of ourselves and to show our God that we are able to handle what he gives us.
I truly believe he is waiting for us to take responsibility for ourselves, to control ourselves. Before he gives us his next challenge and blessing.
