Most people have little self-discipline and will-power.Society makes us weaker than what we would normally be.I mean,think of your grandparents.They probably worked a lot harder and didn't indulge in a whole lot.Maybe because they didn't have time,money,whatever,but I'll bet they didn't sit around in front of the t.v. with something fattening,or get thoroughly schwacked every weekend like a lot of people do.The only way to effectively combat the weakness is to just not have enough time or money to do that stuff.

There is a thing called ego that is like a giant cyclops eye or "I". It seems to always be after pleasure and distraction. Only when we subdue it and realize that everything we want is not good for us, can we be free of its enslavement. Twelve step programs offer a cure that is free and works relatively fast..

We have got to believe in our own minds a bit more.Ordinary people have accomplished unbelievable things. So instead of trying, do what you are capable of and look after yourself!

because we are so "selfish",we are so selfish because we are in love with this world,and i can tell you can do nothing to stop that but you can do one thing,"THE RIGHT THING",still you will not stop hurting yourself ,you will only worsen it,but this time you will be given the gift from the word "GOD",that gift is "DEATH",who knows what will happen next..........

The sense of self,separate from God gives humanity the illusian of being a sinner,living in duality. Pray directly to God ,please send me a teacher who has the power to Baptize me with spirit and with fire. He will do so. he sent me a saint from india and after being baptized with spirit One is living in spiritual unity with God & is no longer a "sinner" ,rising above the carnal nature,serving God in all things. God has many,many such saints living and out of body. Jesus is but one of them.
