In your life there are many things that control you, and they will never end unless you take control.
Here are some examples of control issues in your life:
1.) When people control you with their words, such as you should do this and you should say that. Don't look for their approval but look for the approval of God. Strive for a balance in your life.
Romans 14:12  says: ... And so each of us shall give an account of himself to God. (no one else.)
2.) Your addictions can control you such as; overeating, TV, smoking, gambling, alcohol and much, much more. Be tuned into the Christ within you.
II Corinthians 10:4 says: ...For our weapons of warfare are not physical but they are mighty before God for the over-throw and destruction of strong-holds.
3.) Then there is the emotional issues that control you, such as; criticism, anger, fear, jealousy, blaming, and negativity. Don't allow these things to enter in because it does not produce good fruit in your life.
Know that God has created you, and He loves you.
Phillipians 4:13 says: ...I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.
When you change the things you allow your mind to dwell on, you are on your way to greater freedom, wholeness, and victory.
God has written His thoughts for us in His book ( the bible), so we must choose to examine our own thoughts and actions in the light of God's word. Always be willing to submit our thoughts to His thoughts, knowing that His are best.
