Gospel of Thomas vs. 3
Jesus said, "If your leaders say to you, 'Look, the (Father's) kingdom is in the sky,' then the birds of the sky will precede you. If they say to you, 'It is in the sea,' then the fish will precede you. Rather, the (Father's) kingdom is within you and it is outside you.
When you know yourselves, then you will be known, and you will understand that you are children of the living Father. But if you do not know yourselves, then you live in poverty, and you are the poverty."

So do you know who you are? Do you live it?
When I recognize I am a child of God, I should consider his wishes since I am 'living under his roof' so to speak.
If I think I'm just a child of my earthly parents, now living on my own, my own selfish desires will rule.
