We 'become', what we 'immerse' ourselves in.
We are deeply influenced by our surroundings, and by those, whom we choose to surround ourselves with, always.
I believe that.
light,
From the scripture quotes in many of my posts, you may have guessed, that i have chosen to spend some/much of my time, reading the holy bible.
Some may view that time spent, as being of little worth. ???
Psalms 23:1
The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want.
2 He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters.
3 He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake.
4 Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.
5 Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over.
6 Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the LORD for ever.

A comment,
There are many in this forum, over time, that have expressed their distaste for quotes from scripture.
I will tell you something about God, and scripture, and spirits.
God, SATAN, angels, and demons [evil angels],
...are spirits,
...and in my experience, they are real.
Reading the Bible, imo, is a form of spiritual invocation.
IMO, the words and thoughts expressed within the Bible, express [to me] the mind of our God.
Reading those words and thoughts, exposes me to that spirit, the spirit, which i want to be influenced by.
i.e.
The spirit of God!
It is that simple.
IMO, people who hate the Bible [and some people do], are [knowingly, or unknowingly!] demonstrating their hatred for [the spirit of] God!
It is that simple.
and......

About God....
In my experience, God is real.
And i believe that the group of documents we have come to call 'the Bible', was inspired by God.
Reading the bible, i believe, has 'changed my mind', in every sense of that expression!
And imo, reading the Bible, is a form of spiritual invocation.

But i know that that, is difficult to comprehend.
If you want to 'know' God, read and study the Bible.
"The Bible will keep you from sin, or sin will keep you from the Bible."Dwight L. Moody (American Evangelist, 1837-1899)
.
My experience is that, we won't find the essence [or spirit] of God in the things of men, nor, in the things which pertain to this world.
Not even in the Christian churches [which have, imo, been subjected
too much to the influences] of this world.

We have no power, to choose God.
It is God who chooses us.

My God, as i perceive him, has created an environment, a circumstance, where we reveal ourselves.
My God, as i perceive him, is just and merciful.
We place too much emphasis on what God has 'done' [i.e. what he 'allows'], but we miss the obvious.
This current world is what we [mankind] have created through our choices.
Q.
Does God allow this?
A.
Yes. [from my perspective]
Q.
Is God unjust to allow us to commit evil?
A.
Better to make our 'mistakes' here, than in the spirit world.
We are all spiritual beings [i believe], and we come to this physical existence specifically [i believe], to exercise the 'power' of choice [given to each of us, by God], ....in this physical existence.
And in this life, by our choices, we have an 'opportunity' to demonstrate, that we understand the consequences of our choices.
Choice is a mental power, a thought power,
....a spiritual power.
Here, in this 'reality', here on this little planet, our choices have no form, until we express them, physically!
We are 'going to school' here [i believe].
And [i believe that] we come here, to learn, and to come to understand the consequences of expressing our choices.
