Self control has always been something I lacked in my life until I read Galatians 5 and started asking God to make the fruit of the Spirit evident in my life, and I started to crucify my flesh daily. I'll never reach perfection but I am aware and repentant. It has completely transformed my life to the point that I don't even recognize the person that I was. I cringe when I see Christian women post things like "I love Jesus but I drink a little and say **** alot." Drinking to excess and speaking filth are not virtues, and yet they see them as endearing qualities about themselves. I can say this as someone who used to have the same mentality. I thank God for conviction πŸ™Œ

What a testament to the working of the HOLY Spirit in your life, Jenna. I have often said if you don't have the HOLY Spirit guiding your life choices...the UNholy 'spirits' take over - be it drugs, alcohol, sex, gambling, 'stuff'!!
