Temperance



   " But we're talking about Holy Spirit temperance. That means how to control your tongue, not be a tattler; how to control your temper, not fly off every time anybody speaks cross to you...Temperance, how to answer in kindness when wrath is spoke to you."- William Marrion Branham

    " Temperance is simply a disposition which binds the passions."- Sir Thomas Aquinas

     "Temperance is moderation in things that are good and total abstinence from things that are foul."-  Frances E. Willard

     "Temperance and labor are the two best physicians of man; labor sharpens the appetite, and temperance prevents from indulging to excess." Jean-Jacques Rousseau

    " Self-disciplined begins with the mastery of your thoughts. If you don't control what you think, you can't control what you do. Simply, self-disciplined enables you to think first and act afterward,"- Napoleon Hill

      "Have you found honey? Eat so much as is sufficient for you..."- Proverbs 25:16

     " For the drunkard and the glutton shall come to poverty." - Proverbs 23:21

     " And He said unto them all, If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow Me."

        Temperance, it is what has been on my heart of late.
