We end the month in Proverbs 25:16 with another one of Solomon’s wise sayings—this time about food: “If you find honey, eat just enough. If you eat too much of it, you will throw up.” Of course, Solomon’s words are true about more than just food. Too much of anything isn’t good for us. But when we trust God to help us, we can choose to stay in control. Bottom Line: Know when to stop. It’s hard to stop if you don’t know WHEN you should stop. God has given us the Holy Spirit to help us show self-control. In fact, self-control is something God’s Spirit creates IN us. When we demonstrate self-control, others can see the difference God has made in our lives. That may not come easily, but we can choose what’s best when we trust God and ask God to help us.
