You are what you allow yourself to be...  {short of being dominated, forced or placed into some form of salvery}  So it behooves you to choose the best from what you have.  This is not about all the stuff or things that you can or may want to become involved in! 

This is about where will you spend Eternity {which is like forever}?

We are all born with a free agency {or choice} as to how we will act... Since at first we come very dependent upon others {parents, family, friends or others} our oppsitions are self centered and controlled.  Even though this is a fact for most people, and even for many it is restrictive and somewhat limited - you can over come it!

Getting our eyes and mind off your -  "Big Me" will go a long way toward living a better life! Only the fool or some what insane would follow a course that leads one to a totally controlled existence!

================================================

This is where your spiritiual journey begins... 

Because to follow the ways and actions of self centered controlling individules only leads to folly and a life of failure!

 *"It is not insult from another that causes you pain. It is the part of your mind that agrees with the insult. Agree only with the truth about you, and you are free."
- Alan Cohen 

"It is the rare fortune of these days that one may think what one likes and say what one thinks."
- Tacitus, Histories of Tacitus     

 - James 4:1 ESV

" What causes quarrels and what causes fights among you? Is it not this, that your passions are at war within you?"

 -  Mark 7:21-22

 "For from within, out of the heart of man, come evil thoughts, sexual immorality, theft, murder, adultery, coveting, wickedness, deceit, sensuality, envy, slander, pride, foolishness."

 - Romans 12:1-21 ESV

" I appeal to you therefore, brothers, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable to God, which is your spiritual worship. Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that by testing you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect. For by the grace given to me I say to everyone among you not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think, but to think with sober judgment, each according to the measure of faith that God has assigned. For as in one body we have many members, and the members do not all have the same function, so we, though many, are one body in Christ, and individually members one of another. "

1 Corthinans 2:11- 16

For who knows a person's thoughts except the spirit of that person, which is in him? So also no one comprehends the thoughts of God except the Spirit of God. Now we have received not the spirit of the world, but the Spirit who is from God, that we might understand the things freely given us by God. And we impart this in words not taught by human wisdom but taught by the Spirit, interpreting spiritual truths to those who are spiritual. The natural person does not accept the things of the Spirit of God, for they are folly to him, and he is not able to understand them because they are spiritually discerned. The spiritual person judges all things, but is himself to be judged by no one.
