You can control yourself if you really want to. I'll tell you how I know you can control yourself. If you were in a full fledged emotional temper tantrum in your house and I knocked on your front door..... Come on! Let me tell you what, you would get control of yourself, and it would only take a few seconds.

If I'm a blessing to you, then either God will put it on your heart to bless me, or he'll use somebody else to bless me. If I'm friendly with you, then I'll have friends. If I'm merciful with people, the Bible says I'll get mercy back. If I'm not judgmental, then people won't be judgmental with me. And it works also with finances. If you give to help other hurting people and you give to the preaching of the gospel, because you love God, then God takes care of you.

Breaking old habits and forming new ones always takes time, but it is worth it in the end.

Get up every day, love God, and do your best. He will do the rest!

Go home, and let all your relatives off the potter's wheel. You are not the potter!

The Bible has the answers to our everyday life. Many times people don't realize how practical it is.

We cannot control what others do to us, but through God we can control the way we respond to them.
