Your Future, Your Choice!

DO YOU HAVE ANY REAL CHOICE IN WHAT YOUR FUTURE WILL BE?   Some people believe that fate or predestination, not personal choice, controls their life.  When they fail to reach certain goals, they simply shrug it off as inevitable.  "It was never meant to be!" They say.

Others become disillusioned when they see no way out of this oppressive and unjust world in which we live.  They may try to make their lives better-only to see things like war, crime, natural disasters, and sickness wreck their plans time and again.  'Why bother? they ask themselves.

It is true that circumstances in life can seriously affect your plans.  (Ecclesiastes 9:11)   However, when it comes to your ultimate destiny, you do have a very real choice.  In fact, the Bible shows that your future depends on your choice.  Consider what it says.
