God doesn’t rush. Carefully and sovereignly He works to reveal His glory. From the morning sunrise, which slowly spreads its rays across the face of the earth, to the unfolding of His plan in each of our lives, God takes His time to achieve His will. How unlike us! We are impatient, anxious, and impulsive, wondering why things haven’t happened as quickly as we wish.

Pastor Chuck Swindoll teaches the truths of Galatians 5 to urge you to choose what’s good. How? By yielding to the powerful work of the Spirit within you. The Spirit nourishes us. He strengthens us to put to death our rotten desires and to bear the fresh fruit of Christlikeness.

Pastor Chuck Swindoll addresses the touchy topic of self-control, applying this biblical principle to our morals, motives, and mouths. A disciplined person is protected from snares.
When your life is free of bitterness you have lots of room for kindness. Which would you rather have in your life?
