CLOSING

• You may feel that you have gotten so far into you "own thing" that you have broken all chains and shackles.
• You may be struggling to be free from the control of society, friends, love ones, only to discover that your bondage doesn't come from outside sources, but from inside sources (your memory, your mind).
• All hope seems lost, but where there is life, there is still hope.
• Jesus can touch your place of insanity and restore you back into your right mind.

Philippians 4:8

"Finally, bretheren, whatever things are true (genuine), whatever things are noble (good), whatever things are just (right, honest), whatever things are pure (clean, real), whatever things are lovely (nice, pleasant), whatever things are of good report (good testimony), if there is any virtue (righteousness) and if there is anything praiseworthy (worthy, commendable) -meditate on these things."
