The Enlightened Christian

    Life is a purposeful event, for nothing happens to you by chance. You are the author of your own destiny - within the designs of God's plan for you. You were made to be a co-creator with God. If this is true, you are, at least in part, responsible for the great good or hardship you have created in the lives of others, as well as the adversity or growth that you may have experienced personally.
    Many people do not want to take responsibility for having created anything grievous. They wish to play the role of the victim. However, God made you to choose. Therefore, you have power to bring about a more perfect outcome based upon your ability to choose wisely.
    Choosing is a curious thing, as it is so often influenced by the rod in which you measure it. For, example, something chosen by societal standards may have a completely different value when measured by spiritual standards. Your life, then, is a living record of the choices you have made. Therefore, know deep within yourself in whom you believe, for your beliefs will carry you into Eternity.
    I pray God will lead you ever upward by the choices you make.
