Self-control Fruit
“The fruit of the Spirit is … self-control.â€Â (Gal. 5:22, 23)
Self-control is the ability to properly control our emotions, desires and actions. In every situation we have to choose between the desires of the flesh and the leading of the Holy Spirit. Self-control is all about choosing well. The only way we can consistently choose well is to always be under the influence of the Holy Spirit, allowing Him to produce self-control within us.
