"We are free to choose our paths, but we can't choose the consequences that come with them.” ― Sean Covey The 7 Habits Of Highly Effective Teens

 

 

The choices we make in response to our environments, experiences, and even our genetic makeup steer us down unique pathways. In our journey we have to learn which stimuli to respond to and which to ignore. 

Gods Sovereignty

It is God’s sovereignty that determines so many things about our environment: the culture and period of time in which we’re born and the seemingly random events we experience.  And though God does not control our choices, he may open and close doors of opportunities for our choices.  And God certainly has a way of intervening in our lives in mysterious ways.  We may never know until Heaven just how many times he protected us, disciplined us, worked out circumstances for us, or tugged on our hearts to turn us toward him and his will.
