“Self-control is not something which must be done completely on our own. Self-control is listed in Galatians 5 as a fruit of the Spirit. Believers who sincerely desire to be led by the Holy Spirit will discover a slow decline in strife, jealousy, outbursts of anger, disputes and other ‘deeds of the flesh.’ With God’s help we can learn love, patience, gentleness, and self-control.”
