Being a “dry drunk” is a term used to describe a person whose actions and attitude are pretty much the same as when they were drinking. Jesus wants to heal us and set us free from living as a dry drunk.

To avoid confrontations that we are partly responsible for, fight or flight may seem like the only options. There is a better response.

What we have to say truly matters because God’s wisdom is precious and uplifting to those who are still in bondage to their old way of thinking and unmanageable lifestyle.

Many of us have never been disciplined in the art of following through on the commitments we make. We start something and then get tired when it takes more effort than we are willing to give.  God is committed to us and to our growth and will help us today to learn this art of following through on our commitments

When we decided to give our lives over to the care of God our stubborn hard heart was removed, and we were given a soft tender heart of flesh. The Holy Spirit was given to us to guide us in the way of truth and to help us make wise choices through understanding the consequences of our words and actions.  That’s the foundation of growing a wise heart.

When we say that someone has a “good track record” it usually means that what they have done or achieved in the past has been helpful or successful and particularly so where it impacts something they are offering or promising to do today. What could be said of our track record?
