So today I was writing a song and it had me thinking about my life and how everything fell into place for me. I do believe in pre-destiny but I also believe that God gave us the power of free-will. So how do those two thing exist if they are polar opposites? Today I think I've figured it out.
Ones life is predestined but one still has the power of free-will to CHOOSE what destiny he/she wants. I feel like we as humans and spiritual beings have OPTIONS of different destinies. Here's an analogy that I came up with: You know that racing video game in the movie theatre called "Outrun"? Most guys do lol, but if you don't well it has this huge map and you have to get to the checkpoints before the time runs out while trying to avoid all these other cars. But before you get to these checkpoints, there are forks in the road and you have the choice to go either way. Either route you take is going to lead you to the finish line but, the route in which you take determines the difficulty of the level and also the scenery.
So when talking in the terms of life, everyone has their multiple finish lines, what it really comes down to, is the journey. So take a look at your map and ask yourself which finish line do you what to end up at? Then ask "Which scenic route will I take?"
