Overcoming Old Habits Advice

Many of the old habits and actions still cling to me.

I too came out of a bad lifestyle when I found Jesus. Many of the old habits and actions still clung to me. I found that there were two things that helped me to break out of this cycle of falling.

First I determined to get up 15 minutes earlier each day, and use that time to read a chapter from my Bible, and then talk to the Lord and ask for His help for the day.

Second, I found a good church, where the people were really followers of Jesus, and made new friends. They encouraged me and held me accountable. Slowly I was able to control my tongue and with God's help, in time I overcame my bad habits.
