Life
itself simply happens, as a seed sprouts, grows, blossoms, and transforms into
many seeds again. If there were a storm flooding away the plant, it simply
happens. There is no such term as ‘better’ or ‘worse’ in the Universe. All
simply happens. They are without any particular judgments for any seasons or
events.
The
greatest gift God granted human beings is the freewill to define the meaning of
our lives. Life itself is without any meaning, except what we define of it. Any
personal experiences, occurrences, or happenings are meaningless in themselves,
except how we define on them, or how we are told to define them.
For
example, getting fired from a job. It happens. Some people will define it as
bad and unfortunate. It’s the evil work of the devil, for he comes to kill and
destroy. However, some people will define it as good and fortunate. It’s the
good work of God, for He opens another door when one door closes.
So, which
party is correct? The fact is, both are correct, as both will experience their
definitions accordingly.
The
definitions we go by usually have nothing to do with our experiences. They are
mostly taught and defined by our friends, family, religions, culture, and
society. The so-called ‘Truth’ we live by is mostly taught and defined by
others.
Even our experiences are not the best indexes
of Truth, because we can still define our experiences based on what were taught
by others.
For
example, look at being single moms. Some will define their experiences as being
pitiful, lonely, struggling, worrisome, bittersweet, laboring, etc. Some will
define as being liberating, fulfilling, exciting, amazing, loving, and easy.
So, which
party is correct? The fact is, both are correct, as both will experience their
definitions accordingly.
The
reason we are given freewill is to have the liberty to define the meaning of
our lives. And through these definitions, we get to create the purposes and the
meaning of our lives. Thus, we get to re-define who we are based on our own
chosen destinies.
This is
when you realize how big our God is when He created you. He is absolute Love,
Truth, Peace, and also Liberty. So are you. You are indeed Liberty, too. He has
given you the freewill, the power, and authority to define the purposes of your
life, and create accordingly.
By such
Liberty, you get to recreate yourself based on who you really are and what you
want to be. By being restored to Love, Truth, Peace, and now Liberty, you are
released to recreate your destiny.
