I believe that our background and circumstances may have influenced who we are,but we are responsible for who we become.
I believe that its taking me a long time to become the person I want to be.
I believe that we are responsible for what we do,no matter how we feel.
I believe that either you control your attitude or it controls you.
I believe that sometimes when I am angry i have the right to be angry,but that doesn't give me the right to be cruel.
I believe that maturity has more to so with what types of experiences you have had and what you have learned from them and less to do with how many b-days you have had.
I believe that it isn't always enough to be forgiven by others.Sometimes you have to to learn to forgive yourself.
I believe that your life can be changed in a matter of hours by people who don't even know you.
How true do you find these things to be?

I find them to be very true and I also have to say that with all of these things, each day is a gift from God and that with God these things can come to pass much easier than without him.
I believe that Jesus spoke of this kind of truth as he walked the earth, giving God the credit for life and we the chance to choose life by doing many of these things in fellowship.
With God in mind and the filling of the holy spirit it is divine good and spiritual maturity.
Without God in mind and without the filling of the holy spirit it is what he calls dead works.
Have a great day.

What a great question.From what you ask I think you are on your way to being a great human being,if not already so.This world has a way of making the worst of us all.To ask shows inwardness,and inwardness leads to happiness and happiness leads to fulfillment,and fulfillment .......who knows

IF you bring the truths of God into all of this you will see thats just what He is saying to. We cant live evil and blame it on somene else. THey may be evil and they may have influenced us, but its our choice to stay that way or let God change us, absolutely When we grow up, we must stop thinking as a child and act like a rseponsible adult. absolutely. We arent to act on emotions, but on the word of God, and when we are living for Jesus, we wont allow emotions or past feelings to control us. WE are simply living like Jesus lives and in the power and control over sin that He gave us at the cross. WE live His will and His desires. and we allow Him to heal us and deliver us of past curses and live for today with Him, having His will and desires. We surrender to HIm daily our will and take on only His and we are glad to do so, becasue He loves us, we love Him and only He knows what is best. amen Anger doesnt have to be sin, its what we do with that anger, and the attitude we have will determine how we see it. IF we have forgiven others , then we know they didnt mean to hurt us, they only hurt because they are hurting and have issues they have never been able to forgive or resolve within their own self. We simply pray for them Therefor we wont react in anger and do things we shouldnt> BUt if we hang on to anger and pain, it will control us as we are hearing only the devil , and it is curse. We must do what God says , all of it, there is no other way to peace and joy . We are to learn from the mistakes of other ppl and we will if we forgive them And we are to learn from our own mistakes and truly learn to forgive ourselves for the mistakes we have made ourself. If we owe anyone an apology, we must seek forgiveness. When we live as Jesus said to live, it realses us from the bondage and curse of sin. Healing comes. maturity comes. Others can change our life overnight, for the good or bad, if we allow it. God tells us how to live and speak. To live for Jesus and like Jesus and be in obedience to Him, as He was to the Father. We are to speak like Jesus, without fear or compromise, absolutly. no time to tiptoe with the gospel anymore. FOR SURE. So if we are truly the Lord, we will hear from only those that speak the things that God said, and we wont tolerate hearing anything that is not of God. WE just check all things out according to the word of God and we know.
Yes, your words are true, and very important to us all, as it is how Jesus taught us too. Just dont leave Him out of the equation or these are empty words, cuz it implies we can do it all ourselves, and we cant. WE can do all things with God, nothing is impossible, but without God, we can do nothing We must always give HIm the full credit and glory.
