SPIRIT RULES

1 Cor. 9:27
But I discipline my body and make it may slave; so that, after I have preached to others, I myself will not be disqualified.

Keeping my body under control is one of the most challenging things in my life! I have to often ask myself this question; “who’s in charge here, my spirit or my flesh?”
How do I keep my flesh in control? I want a donut, but I don’t have one. I want a Pepsi, but I don’t have one. No sugar for a while, no TV for a while. Whatever I love in the flesh I often give up for a time of bodily discipline. I have to continue to think, “it’s not about me, it’s about HIM (Jesus). It’s not about me it’s about THEM (non-followers of Christ). They need Jesus so very much and I can’t let me stand in the way of their salvation.
