Mastering your destiny...

I will use an analogy of cell phones. Most people when they have poor reception on their cell phone blame the carrier. They think that whatever cellular service provider that they have selected is providing poor service less the reason why they're called sound so badly. In many cases however what I have found is that you can have two different phones with shockingly different reception and call Quality and the carrier has nothing to do with it. Ultimately it's the quality of the phone. What does this have to do with God? You should never think that your relationship with God has anything to do with anything other than yourself. How well you think and how well you live your life will determine just what kind of relationship you will have with your religion and with your deity. If you are better and more evolved human being you are much more likely to have a better relationship with your God then you would if you gave in to all of your base Pleasures, desires and whims. Just like the example of a two cell phones it's the better equipment that receives the cellular signal more strongly. And in the case of yourself if you had become a better person then it is much more likely that you will be able to receive and understand the word of God in a more cohesive and constructive manner.
