The tongue that brings healing is a tree of life, but a deceitful tongue crushes the spirit." (v.4) Sweeter than the day before. [Refrain] Every day With Jesus Is Sweeter Than the Day Before Hymn Story What are some of the areas of life in which we need to have self-control? Let me select what I consider to be the three most important. The first is the area of sex. Controlled sex is creative; uncontrolled sex is chaotic. I need hardly say that sex outside of marriage is clearly forbidden by Scripture and those who engage in it will find it leads not to fulfilment but to disintegration of the personality. That disintegration may not come right away, but given time -- come it will. Every day With Jesus Is Sweeter Than the Day Before” is a Christian hymn whose authorship is unknown.
