Not Me...Ever part 2

Some days are better then others though (((Hugs)))

OK, I just realized that response that I posted in this thread has gone AWOL.

A conversation with a friend of mine had an interesting perspective on God's plan vs. free will.

God has a plan for each and every one of us, and he wants up to be in happy, loving relationships with others. But we also have free will, which allows us to do things that may not line up with God's plan for us. Her take on it was that you can choose to work against against God's plan, but it never works out the way you hope it will, and never to God's detriment.

I thought of it like trying to argue with a hurricane. You are free to choose your own path through the storm, but the storm is not to blame for whatever happens to you.
