Ch 90 Love of Novelty and Variety

Thoughts:

Curiosity in control can be a positive thing.  One could say all things in moderation.  Self-control is a gift of the Holy Spirit and we need to strive and ask God for it.

Pray:

Divine Inspirer,  O' Holy Spirit please give me the gift of self-control.  Help me to control my desires and sins of the flesh.  Help me to take control of my life and fight the spiritual battle that is happening all around me.  I pray this in the name of Jesus.

Amen.

Amen.

Ch 80 Anger Thoughts How do I interact with individuals that are confrontational?   What do I say when someone else says something hurtful to me?  When I get angry what other items are going through my mind?  Is there something else bothering me or a root to the problem?  Am I blinded by my rage? One needs to be meek and should follow the prayer of meekness.  Do not let anger blind you to a higher way of thinking.  Do not act on animal instincts, but spiritual ones. Pray: Jesus Meek and Humble of Heart…make my heart like unto Thine. Amen.
