Topic:
Self-control As The Way To Victory
The ultimate objective in life is not to avoid a battle with the
darkness. The ultimate objective in life is to win. The ultimate
strategy in life is to be smart enough to beat the adversary who wants
you dead. The ultimate strategy of life is to win regardless of the
odds. In order to play this game of life, in order to win at this game,
you need to understand the importance of self-control and
self-discipline. For without self-control and self-discipline, no
strategy to win, no matter how well designed, will work. It takes
self-control and self-discipline to carry out any plan of attack against
the adversary or carry out any kind of defensive measure. You can have
all the hope in the world, you have all the resources you will ever
need, you can have all the intelligence and talent anyone could ever
hope to have…but without the ability to control yourself in every
situation, you are defeated before you start. To win over sin and
temptation requires you control who you are. To fully love others and
fully love God, requires you control who you are. The greatest tragedies
of life are not the unforeseen events that strike us without warning.
The greatest tragedies of life are those times when the promise of life
is not realized because persons did not have enough self-control and
self-discipline to pursue the promise.
If these words have been a blessing to you please forward
