A City Without Walls

A person without self-control
is like a city with broken-down walls. (Proverbs 25:28 NLT)

As a naive girl from lil old Maryville, TN, I never really worried about city without walls. However, I am instantly reminded of 9/11. That day, those events, those memories make this passage relevant to me. We MUST worry about a city/nation without walls!

Just like an airport with intense security limits us, so does self-control. I think we can all agree that self control & security is necessary tho! An out-of-control life is open to all sorts of attacks by the enemy. Instead of thinking about limits & rules & inconveniences, think of self-control as a wall for defense and protection.
