We live in a time zone, whereas God is beyond the time zone. He knows everything about our past, present, and future with his infinite knowledge. The most extraordinary gift given to humans as the most perfect creatures of God’s creation is to be given the mind, heart, intellect, and body. These are the body’s power points through which we perceive, analyze and make judgment. It would be of no use if we didn’t have free will and free choice. These are the tools to make the decision. For instance, if you have a pen but you need ink to write without ink you cannot write. Similarly, free will and free choice is the tool for the heart, mind, eyes and intellect to understand the reality.
What is reality?
The students have been given a blank paper on which to write their responses. They will pass only if they write the correct answer. Just like that, we have to go on to the true path with our consciousness. That’s why we are not pre-programmed like other creations, otherwise the attribute is of no use. The heart, mind, eyes, and ears are the most valuable parts of human beings that allow us to choose the right path.
What is the truth ?
Reality is always behind the curtain of this universe. As it’s difficult to understand the mystry of this universe, which is beyond man’s reach. He hasn’t come with his wish, and neither will the planet. We have no control over some aspects of life, like birth (gender), death , provision, calamity, and disease. If we think about it enough, we’ll realise that one supreme being is running the show and we’re just pawns in it. Because man has two selves, one physical and one spiritual. Man can try to understand physical realities to some extent, but he can grasp unseen spiritual realities. Man needs special guidance, whereas other species don’t require external guidance.
God has given us free will to test us in this world, and He does not interfere in our affairs in any way, so we have the ability to make decisions. Now what is predestiny? The following examples will help us understand the importance of free will and choice.
If someone has been selected as a state governor, He has complete authority and power to make decisions for his state. This entirely depends upon his decision, which not only strengthens his position and power but also benefits others. He should keep in mind that higher authority is reserved with central authority. This is what destiny and the free will we human beings possess. The choice or decision is to integrate humanity or break up. That’s why belief in one true God is very important, which binds humanity in one thread.
Again, making an effort is a part of the power we have in the form of free will—if we waste it away with a self-satisfied attitude, then we’re being ungrateful for the blessing we have. We must do everything within our power to optimise our lives—at the same time, we must recognise that God’s power and domain are far greater. He is considering not only us, but all of humanity and the entire universe!
Same thing here. We are given free will and choice within certain criteria and have the authority to take a good step or bad step, which is solely our choice. Certainly, human beings will be held responsible for their actions. So choose wisely!
The consequences of our choice directly or indirect affects our life. As we have limited free will in this world. Even our limited choices have consequences that are often beyond our control. However, servitude to God allows us to vastly expand our freedom of choice.
“You are free to choose,
but you are not free from the
consequences of your choice”…
God is Omniscient and Omnipresent—i.e., he is fully aware of his creation and is always present. He is also All-Powerful, so whatever He decrees takes place, but God wills only justice and goodness.
God is All-Knowing and Most-Wise!!
God knows best.
