Cultivating self-control during temptation
Gracious Lord, I thank You for the gift of self-control. Help me cultivate this gift in my life as I pursue sexual purity. When faced with temptation, remind me of the power of Your love and the importance of my commitment. Teach me to turn to You in moments of weakness, to find strength in prayer and in Your promises. May my actions reflect my dedication to living a life pleasing to You. I trust in Your sustaining grace. Amen. (Galatians 5:22-23; 1 Corinthians 10:13)
