Discipline to Change
Justifying ourselves or blaming others for our own lack of self-control gives us the excuse to keep such actions. Refusing to allow these excuses paves the way for the discipline needed to change.

What little wisdom I have is scarcely my own. It's the culmination of what I've had the privilege to learn from others. “A wise man will hear and increase learning, and a man of understanding will attain wise counsel" Proverbs 1:5 Prayer: Father, I see wisdom around me, and I open my ears and heart … Continue reading Not My Own
