Free will VS God's way.

    Sometimes, I really hate free will. I mean wouldn't God's way always be best? It would save us so much agony, if we didn't and even couldn't do the stupid things we want to in our lives. What a perfect life it would be, but God doesn't work like that. He lets us learn from our own mistakes and He lets those mistakes change us into the people we are meant to be. Half of the testimonies wouldn't even be without a rags to riches, mountain peak to valley type of story. We wouldn't get to see just how great and huge God was and is because He has, can and will bring us out of our misery. You know God does not delight in evil or in our pain. He is not like the gods on stories and in mythology. He loves us as He created us even the flaws He put into us and said it is good. So when we are hurting because of our free will He hurts with us. Our wickedness hurts His heart. It's not like a parent who is angry at their child for the bad they have done because it is a reflection of them. He feels agony when we are immersed in our sin because we are far away from Him. He wants nothing more then to have His children come to Him. It's why He sent His son to die on the cross for our sins, otherwise we would be eternally separated from God and His heart would ache for our separation. He yearns to be a part of our lives not because He wants to rule over us and be this deity in the clouds directing our every foot step for his own pleasure and entertainment. He wants to love us and comfort us when we need Him. God is love defined.

Knowing that God loves you that much, why would you allow anyone to touch you who has not vowed before God Himself to have and hold you in sickness and health, richer and poorer.

Knowing that God loves you that much, why would you allow anyone to love you who has not learned love from the one who defines and created love?

Knowing that God loves you that much why would we not trust Him with every aspect of our lives? Our best interests and happiness is what motivates Him. Why not trust in that?

Once again, this is where that pesky free will comes in. When we are not so engulfed and enraptured and in love with God our free will causes us pain. We cannot ask God why, when it is us that have opened our bodies to anyone willing to look. And it is us who have once again suffered a broken heart or broken a heart. It is us who have withheld our trust from God because it is easier to be in control and in the moment it feels good to be touched and held. But nothing can compare to what God has for you when you wait on His timing and follow Him even when it's hard. The reward comes from the creator of the universe, so could you expect anything less then perfection?

Our own pleasure, settling and distrust of God pushes us away from Him because it takes forefront in our lives where God wants to be. His desire is that your relationship with Him be above all else; husbands, wives, boyfriends, girlfriends, best friends, sisters, brothers, bosses, co-workers or anyone else on this earth. When He is first and foremost in your life you will know what true love is. And not what you think your significant other is giving you, but the purest love that comes straight from the source. It's a love that will never cause harm, or leave you even in the darkest moments of your life. Knowing that love will change your life all for the best.

"I know the plans I have for you," declares the Lord. "Plans to prosper you and not harm you, plans to give you hope and a future."
                                                   Jeremiah 29:11

Will you follow God's lead in His plans to prosper you in your future? Or will you remain where you are in mediocre happiness and love?
