Self-indulgence has a cost. Over-drinking and over-eating without restraint leads to poverty — both material and spiritual. Drowsiness (lack of alertness, laziness) is both a cause and a symbol of this kind of decline. The fruit of no self-control is loss.
Memory phrase: Self-control protects your future.
Talk about it: What can happen when people have no self-control over what they eat or drink?
Prayer: God, help me have self-control so I do not lose what matters.
