Free will

TOP del.icio.us

Free will is a blessing that was endowed to mankind during the creation of the earth and heavens. When God created Adam, he gave authority to take care of all things in any way that Adam sees fit in the eyes of God. This was a free will blessing which should be accepted in all socio-political spheres that men are created in equality to choose what they see fit within the normal bounds of their rights. The normal bounds of my rights have however suffered oppression to fit into the measurement of my authorities’ definition. The burden however is not always easy to bear. I felt suffocation sometimes, and I struggled to appreciate why I was created in full. But now my eyes have seen and I can appreciate that the only measure is to exercise my freedom of will in full up to the extent to which I do not infringe into God’s or someone else’s territories.

Egocentrism has seen loads of restraints being cast on my liberties; to such extent that at one point I was fooled into thinking that I do not deserve some of my virtues.  In fact at one point I actually believed that I did not have freedom of expression. But now I see again and I thank God for the restoration.

Free will is not something that you have to exercise for you to enjoy it.  An anticipatory feeling is enough to give one peace and fullness of life.  Just the fact that I know I can exercise a right when need presents itself is enough for me to say that I am living my life in full.  I will call it intuitive fulfillment.
