“Where is your heart? Is your heart with God? Is it with your own ego or your lust? Is it with your greed, your pride, envy, or your resentment?

“If not to God, you will surrender to the opinions or expectations of others, to money, to resentment, to fear, or to your own pride, lusts, or ego.

You are free to choose, what you surrender to but you are not free from the consequence of that choice.” IfsGivingChoicesOpinionFailingPrideEgoWorshipExpectationsConsequenceLustSurrenderIdolsResentmentPurpose Driven LifeWorship God Book:The Purpose Driven Life: What on Earth Am I Here For?

It is prayer, it is divine, and it makes you divine.” IfsPrayerLove IsDivinePureEgoAnd LoveStrategyDisappearLustAriseSmokeJealousyFlamesDominationPossessivenessEgo TripYour Jealous Author:Rajneesh
