Choices or Freewill?

I can blame God.
My father
My mother
For me being born
For my gender
for my race
For my upbringing
I didn’t have a choice.
I can place the blame.

As a human being
I was born with a choice (freewill.)
You can choose a God to worship
To honor thy mother and father
To believe or not to believe
To succeed or fail
To work or be lazy
To purchase or to steal
To be positive or negative
To be hurtful or helpful

Also to chose whom I will love
Whom I will respect
whom I will hug
Whom I will kiss
Whom I will dislike
What I have stolen
The lies I have told
The people I have hurt.

For these choices I can only blame myself
I can blame my God, Father or mother
My sister my brother or another
I can blame the blame on a lot of things.
In reality in Gods eyes
I made the decision to live or die
I was given freewill at birth
As I was raised from a baby to a man
I was taught choices take you to God or the boogeyman

I was taught not to yield to temptation
I was taught to fight against unwise, wrong or immoral thoughts
To overcome temptation is to be one with God.
Our choices are all that we can Control.
Only during slavery can that control, be taken away.
So, in the end you can only blame yourself.
Right or wrong for the choice you’’ve made.
A wrong choice is a sin.
That can lead to death in the end.

And if what we do and don’t do doesn’t matter a wit
Then the life we are living isn’t worth a s––t.
Because there would be no need for praise and punishment
If life is nothingness, why would there be choices
The Father doesn’t want someone to scare you
Chase you or threaten you into his kingdom.
The father wants you to enter with a pure Heart
Using your choice and your freewill given from the start

In the beginning was Desire
We must always choose the right desire.
A wrong choice can lead to a sin.
The road to destruction will be your reward.
A right choice will gain you praise in your father’’s house.
God leaves it up to you.
To repent and change on your own.
To use your freewill.
To make the right choice.
To make the right sacrifice.
So put this thought into your mind.
Ask yourself, Who do I blame for using my free will and making the wrong choices?

I like this, sometimes we regret the choices made, but usually, when we know better, we do better.
