Each of us has been gifted by our Creator, with free will, and therefore we are allowed to freely make decisions, whether good or bad, and of which, the outcome so of, is dependent for us upon what we have so done as well as its effect upon others. The fact that we are provided with free will makes for an interesting dynamic, for the fact of the matter is, that nobody has a real interest in any domain, in which those that we interact with, are always without the free will to determine what they so desire to do, because they are automatons without any desires, and that which has no free will, is something that will not be able to maintain our interest, nor will it ever create a dynamic, in which, there is good and evil, but rather instead it will be just a perpetual neutral.
The greatest gift so provided by God, is our creation so done in a way in which, we are free agents, with the opportunity to do whatsoever that we so desire to try to do, and the consequences, so of, are ours to own. Yet, when provided with that freedom, the initial rush that we individually felt is susceptible to wearing itself out, not so much because there are not enough positives from having that freedom, but rather the consequences of those freedoms, when they are abused, misused, and mismanaged; of which, we suffer therefore from that hurt that reverberates upon us, because we intuitively know that all that we have done wrong, must somehow, be made right.
Then there are those others, that claim that they are not only free agents, but are pretty much sovereign unto themselves, at their volition. The problem with this type of mindset, is that those that truly believe that they can forever stand tall, in their own domain, or believing that they are perfectly happy on their own, or with just those that they prefer to be with, will recognize, sooner or much, much later, that nothing is ever stagnant, so that those that are on top or in control aren’t always going to have things go their way, forever; and therefore those that separate themselves from others deliberately, as if they don’t need or want them, are going to eventually realize, how lonely it is when it all begins to fall apart, which it inevitably will, because the foundation it so rests upon, cannot successfully stand the test and vicissitudes of time.
It is imperative to recognize that God is whole and absolutely complete, and all that which has been created by God, ultimately will not be able to find the satisfaction that it needs until it rests in the only domain that will bring such to completion. It is not conceivable, that those that separate themselves from God, will ever be satisfied with their lot, though satisfaction for a time may well be there; but it must be acknowledged that all those that feel loneliness, lack of love, darkness, hopelessness, and abandonment, are those that have left God for some substitute which cannot last through the skeins of time.
It is important to remember, that God does not own us, that is, we are actually free; and there is no greater tribute that anyone can provide for that which provided them with such freedom, then at the end of the day, to return to their Creator, having taken the great gifts so provided to them, and bountifully increased them for the glory of His kingdom.
