"Self control", applies to so many aspect of our daily lives. From how we act in a traffic jam to how we react in our relationships. This fruit of the Spirit, can actually feel overwhelming as if we must manage and somehow "control" this fruit of the Spirit. If you are new to the Bible or have been a follower of Jesus your entire life, the Bible tells us that having "self control", is absolutely necessary for ourselves and those around us. Listen, as Christian explains why Jesus isn't asking us to get "control" of things or people around us. Rather, He is inviting us to apply His word to our hearts. When we apply His Word, we can then step into the "self control" He offers each of us. The self control He offers us is fully of freedom and love.
