free will

Free will is the greatest gift we have ever been given by God besides his eternal love. Free will allows us to choose atheism, Buddhism, or Christianity. We can choose to kill people or volunteer our time on medical missions. We can choose to live a lavish life and pursue money and fame, or we can choose to live in a monastery. We can choose to be conservative or liberal. We can choose to be a leader or follower. We can choose our careers, places to shop, where to go on vacation, who to date, who to worship, what to love, what kind of music to love, where to live, etc..

The point of making this list is to point out that we are all individuals. And that it is in our human nature to make our own choices. Some choices are wrong and some are right, but we have the freedom to make either. Isn't this a wonderful thing. Throughout time human nature has been to seek out our inalienable right of freedom. So, make sure to take this gift from God and use it wisely.
