“Through Christ you have come to trust in God. And you have placed your faith and hope in God because he raised Christ from the dead and gave him great glory.” (1 Peter 1:21, NLT).
Several years ago, a study was conducted by psychologist Roy Baumeister. His purpose was to study the limits of human willpower. Baumeister had one group of people exert their willpower by resisting the temptation to eat delicious, fresh, warm, gooey, chocolate chip cookies by eating radishes. The other group did not have to resist eating the cookies at all. Then, all of the subjects were assigned complex math problems to solve in order to measure how long people will exercise willpower to persevere through frustration. The people who had to resist eating chocolate chip cookies gave up on the math assignment much more quickly than the others. In conclusion, Roy Baumeister determined that the human power of will is easily fatigued. We can use our will to overcome a habit for a few moments. But, over the long haul, our habits will always beat our willpower.
