Discipline Quote by Anne Nwakama
“Self-control Proverbs 25:28 ESV A man without self-control is like a city broken into and left without walls. 1 Corinthians 10:13 ESV No temptation has overtaken you that is not common to man. God is faithful, and he will not let you be tempted beyond your ability, but with the temptation he will also provide the way of escape, that you may be able to endure it. The word of God explains it all”
