Two helpful articles

It's been a very long time since I posted here! I don't even know if anyone follows this blog. But I found two articles today about self-control in general and gluttony in particular that were helpful and that I wanted to remember. So I decided to put them here. And if anyone is reading, maybe they'll help you, too.

First:

4 Ways to Grow in Self-Control, HT to Challies. "Self-control is one of the biggest indicators of Christian character. Without it, you’ll eventually ruin your life and legacy. With it, you can thrive and be a blessing to others around you. You’re probably convinced of the need for self-control. But how do you get it?"

Second:

Your Gluttony Sent Christ to the Cross. "Defeating gluttony — like pursuing holiness — is not about the one big decision you make on Sunday night to start eating better on Monday morning. It’s about the hundreds of little decisions you make every day to reject finding joy in food and instead find joy in Christ, all in constant reliance on the Spirit."
