Is anything mastering you?
Paul states in 1 Corinthians 6:12 "All things are lawful for me, but not all things are profitable. All things are lawful for me, but I will not be mastered by anything." NASB
In reading A Hunger for God I had to ask my self what is mastering me? A self examination should be done often and I have forced myself to ask some tough questions about my walk with Christ. What is really important to me in this life? Am I allowing desires for other things to choke the word and keep me from growing closer to Him? Please share your thoughts on what masters you.

What a question. There are so many things that get in our line of vision for God. The list is so long; food and all other fleshly desires what or whomever they may be, material things, work, promotion, school or other activities (hobbies) and events. The list is endless if do not stop and reflect on who is truly important. And that is the Lord. He makes all and gives all. He is our all. We have nothing outside of Him. Truly He wants us to enjoy our lives but not to the point where we no longer acknowledge Him in it. What a blessing it is to have the One True Living God within us!
