DO YOU KNOW THAT THE FRUIT OF THE SPIRIT IS.....SELF-CONTROL. [GALATIANS 5:22-23].....There are two kinds of people: THE CONTROLLER AND THE SELF-CONTROLLED. Which one are you? Lets find out: The controller believes that devil does it to them, or people or circumstances, so they respond by blaming, resenting, or projecting frustration. They keep trying to manipulate people and circumstances to their advantage. But people and circumstances usually dont submit to our control, so their attempts only intensify their pain and turn their relationships into power struggles. The more they try to control, the worse they feel; the worse they feel, the more they try to control. REFUSE TO LIVE THAT WAY. But the SELF-CONTROLLED, understands that the devil can do nothing to them without their co-operation, and that they dont have to give it. They understand that people and circumstances arent their problem either, how they deal with them is, they respond by reminding themselves of three things: 1) the person i need to control is me. 2) sometimes i must turn the people and circumstances in my life over to God and allow Him to deal with them. 3) i must draw daily on the power of the Holy Spirit in order to control my reactions and follow the SOUND MIND PRINCIPLE of the scripture for staying incharge of my life. See ( 2 timothy 1:7) as a result they avoid engaging in blame-games, self-inflicted pain, and turning relationships into war zones, Holy spirit empowerd people are freed from being the part of the problem, and become part of the solution God is bringing about. Embrace the Holy Spirit, GOD BLESS YOU
