Dear One,
Freedom is the greatest gift you can give another person, freedom to believe what he wants to believe, freedom to be what he chooses to be, freedom to live like he wants to live.
I have given all of my creatures the freedom to choose on their own, and you must do the same for others. Then you must respect their choices, whether it seems right or wrong by your standards.
I constantly give men the opportunity to make their own choices of who to follow, what to be, where to go, what to do. In other words, I made men responsible for their own choices, with the knowledge that the wrong choices would have bad consequences and the right choices would have good consequences for him.
Men intuitively know which choices are going to bring good results and which choices are going to bring bad results. His spirit within him is the umpire, the guide. He often overrides the intuition and chooses the temptation.
Your choices chart your destiny. They set in motion your future.
Blessings follow some choices and curses follow other choices.
Often your right choice is to choose not to judge the choices of others. If you choose not to judge, then you won't be judged by others.
Often your right choice is to forgive someone for an offense against you. Then you won't become bitter and depressed. You will have freedom and so will the other person.
Often your choice is whether or not to turn the other cheek when someone strikes you. If you don't strike back, then the confrontation ends there. If you do strike back, then the confrontation escalates into a full fledged battle and someone will be seriously injured or killed.
Yes, your choices are the same as everyone else. And they involve living with the consequences of your choices.
Choose to forgive, choose not to judge and choose to give freedom to all men to think, feel, act and make their own choices. Then you are free.
Love, God
