Topic: Fate And Life Events

Is there such a thing as fate controlling the events of our life? Without a positive belief in a positive God, we end up believing we are at the whim of fate. Without a positive belief in a positive God, we live our life as if we are at the mercy of an unjust and unloving power or at the mercy of unjust or unloving persons. Worse yet, without a positive belief in a positive God, we end up believing we are at the whim of few organized events as we walk our road of life. With no belief in a positive God, we come to see ourselves as the true victims of any bad occurrence. With no belief in a positive God, we come to see ourselves as only the receivers of good fortune because of luck. In suffering, with no belief in a positive God, we see ourselves as victims. However, we are victims in life only if we consent to be the victims. With a positive belief in a positive God, we end up believing we control our fate no matter what happens to us. With a positive belief in a positive God, we live our life as if we are blessed by a just and loving power and are surrounded by just and loving persons. With a positive belief in a positive God, we end up believing we organize the events of our walk down the road of our life. With a belief in a positive God, we come to see ourselves as the true victors or winners over any bad occurrence. With a positive belief in a positive God, we come to see ourselves as the receivers of good fortune because of our own decision-making and the outpouring of Christ's blessings. In suffering, with a positive belief in a positive God, we see ourselves as victors not victims. If we had a childhood full of tragedy, we can still be a whole, healthy adult..if we choose to be a whole healthy adult and if we choose to hold a positive belief in a positive God. Our "fate" or destination in life is something we can determine on our own because we have the power to choose. We determine or choose how we will respond to the events of our life. We determine or choose how we respond to good fortune or misfortune. We determine or choose what happens to us in eternity by whether we accept Christ as Savior and Lord of our life.
