SELF-CONTROL

God has given us the ability to choose.  We are able to control how we react to what happens around us.  Through prayer and concentration, we can get better at controlling our reactions.  We can get better at showing self-control.

A person with SELF-CONTROL...

• Is patient
• Knows how to wait his/her turn
• Can calm him/herself down and think before reacting to situations
• Knows how to avoid physical aggression (hitting, kicking, pushing, fighting)
• Can think things through and do what is best for everyone
