Gold Nugget 324 - Self Control
If we let our feelings carry our judgment along with them, we shall be sure to do that which we shall afterwards regret and which may be quite irreparable. Nor is any man at liberty to say that he is constitutionally impulsive and cannot control himself. It may be a more difficult duty in some natures that it is in others; but it is every man’s serious and sacred obligation to rule his own spirit, to maintain a mastery over his affections and his impulses and his resentments. This is to be the excellent result of daily discipline, of strenuous endeavour, of constant prayer.
The Pulpit Commentary, II Chronicles p. 276, II Chronicles 23:11-15 (W. Clarkson)
