Who Are We ?

I am ever intrigued by what makes people the way they are -- or respond the way they do. Basically I have always thought firstly of the childhood environment and influences. But people have bad stuff happen as children are never apparently affected by it. Other people have great things happen to them and find themselves in emotional turmoil and distress. In the words of my old friend, Bug -- what's up Doc ? What gives ? What makes the difference ? Who decides the outcome ?? I am ever amazed at God's design in our freewill. And it is God who rescues us if we let Him. If we can ever get out of our own way - and follows His . . . whew, a novel idea!! And a book would do, too! It's already out there. It's the Bible.
