We all choose our masters.... choose wisely.

I know many a person that pride themselves in being their own master but are they really?  Do any of us actually master our own lives?  I know that I have never for one moment mastered my own, spiritually or physically.  We are all born, no not one of us is made or cloned, we are born of and from someone else's body.  We are born their child, we are theirs to rule for as long as they can or chose to.  Eventually we break free of their rule and become our own masters, really?  In times past, and really until very recent times woman had not this luxury, in some areas of the world they still do not, did you know that until 1972 rape in America was a theft crime? really I am not kidding.  Until that time if a woman was raped it was a crime against a man's possession, some one stole something from a man, yes here in America, so not so long ago, in reality no woman in America  had the right to mastery of their own life. Really.  Do any of us really think that we master our own lives any way.  We are generally mastered by a parent, a spouse, a partner, a job, a law or any number of the statues that we live in, and by, in our societal settings.  No one is an island and therefore truly free unto themselves, and that is just on the physical level.  Spiritually we all are mastered by either the light or the dark, God or Satan, you don't think so, well I hope that you don't go into the hereafter still believing that or you will have a reckoning you will not be prepared for, how sad to live in hell, where the fire that will never be quenched will abound.

Mark 9:43-48

King James Version (KJV)
43 And if thy hand offend thee, cut it off: it is better for thee to enter into life maimed, than having two hands to go into hell, into the fire that never shall be quenched:
44 Where their worm dieth not, and the fire is not quenched.
45 And if thy foot offend thee, cut it off: it is better for thee to enter halt into life, than having two feet to be cast into hell, into the fire that never shall be quenched:
46 Where their worm dieth not, and the fire is not quenched.
47 And if thine eye offend thee, pluck it out: it is better for thee to enter into the kingdom of God with one eye, than having two eyes to be cast into hell fire:
48 Where their worm dieth not, and the fire is not quenched.

We all choose our lives paths.  We all choose our masters.  We all have a choice and we all have to live with the choices we make.  We all have the freewill to make the choices in our lives.  We all choose our masters.    It is most assuredly about that as the most important thing we will ever do.  Being a good person, a good parent, a good anything will fall short in the end, life is about faith, knowing, reckoning and yielding to the master of our souls.  Choose your master well, you will have to live in eternity with the choice you make...... tomorrow.
