A Daily Devotional

Romans 12: 3 For by the grace given me I say to every one of you: Do not think of yourself more highly than you ought, but rather think of yourself with sober judgment, in accordance with the measure of faith God has given you. (NIV)

The word "sober" brings to mind the thought of alcohol and drunkenness. However, we can become inebriated with things other than alcohol or drugs. We can become drunk with greed and avarice. We can be caught up in anger and hostility. We can let our minds be filled with vile thoughts ripping our souls to pieces. Being sober means  you do not let yourself run away from the Lord. Being sober means you maintain your self-control and self-discipline in all things, in all circumstances, and with all people. You bless God, and God blesses you when you remain stable, self-controlled, and sober in your thoughts and deeds.
