When self indulgence is at work.
The results are obvious.
We enter into the murk.
Life becomes tedious.

What the spirit brings is very different.
Love, joy , peace, kindness.
A true testament.
Of goodness, trustfulness and gentleness.

You cannot belong to Christ Jesus.
Unless you crucify all self indulgent passions.
This is true for all of us.
We can then enter his many mansions.

So easy to write.
But for most of us a distant light.

……

Our self indulgence
Leads to what we know happens
But we have a choice

See Galatians  5: 18-25
