“Every athlete exercises self-control in all things. They do it to receive a perishable wreath, but we an imperishable.” I Corinthians 9:25
To reach any goal in life whether is in sports, education, career - you must exercise high levels of personal discipline. However Jesus said in Mathew 16:26 “For what will it profit a man if he gains the whole world and forfeits his SOUL.” BODY - to keep our bodies healthy we must exercise self control in our eating habits and maintain a consistent regimen of physical activities. Work diligently, be responsible, reach success ... but DO NOT FORFEIT YOUR SOUL. SOUL - Real success is twofold: • Keeping your body healthy to enjoy life. Abstain completely from detrimental habits. • Keeping your soul saved to enjoy eternity with God. Feed your soul with the word. The word will keep your thought process pure, your heart clean, and your integrity intact. SELF-CONTROL that really works is not driven exclusively by our willpower, but it is propelled and sustained by the Holy Spirit in our lives. Have a blessed week, Pastor Limones
