Overcoming Sin in Segments
Jesus teaches taking life one day at a time (Matthew 6:24). That concerns worrying about daily necessities. Experience teaches when striving to overcome temptation, we might need to break down each day into segments.
Try this if relying upon God, His Son’s example, and the Spirit who dwells within – break down the day God has blessed us with into hour to hour.
Each hour, as it passes, if you have remained clean from sin – any sin can be an addiction – pause, give thanks for an hour of God’s holiness.
Holiness in action is like building a brick house. One brick, one day, even one hour at a time.
