God gives you the power to have self-control

​Dear RF Friends,
 
On Sunday in RF, we finished up the 9-week series on the Fruits of the Spirit by looking at James 3:1-6 and discussing self-control.  Our words have power.  James uses practical images like a horse's bit, a ship's rudder, and a flame to show us just how powerful they are.  Our words can hurt, or they can heal, and controlling them can sometimes feel impossible.  Thankfully, we can count on the Holy Spirit to help us practice self-control with our words. 
               
Bottom Line:  God gives you the power to have self-control.  Self-control can be tricky, especially when we want something really bad or when life doesn't go our way.  This can also be true with the words we use.  We pray that the kids will begin to see that they don't need to do this all independently.  God can help them show self-control. 
 
The attached take-home paper includes a fun coloring page to review the Fruits of the Spirit! 
 
Blessings,
RF Team
