Cultivating self-control and good habits.
Gracious God, I recognize the importance of self-control in my life. As I strive for spiritual growth, help me cultivate habits that align with Your teachings. Strengthen my resolve to avoid temptation and fill my heart with desire for what is good and true. May each day be an opportunity to live according to Your calling and to glorify You in my choices. In Your name, I pray. Amen. (Galatians 5:22-23; 2 Timothy 1:7)
