Host: Does God dictate my every decision?
Rev. Dr. Rock Schuler: I believe that God gives us great freedom of will which means that God does not dictate our every decision. I do believe that God desires us on the whole to follow the way of love, the way of giving as opposed to the way of selfishness, the way of hoarding. So I believe that we will often be confronted with different choices throughout life and we will be able to choose the way of love, the way of giving and yet, within the context of that broad choice we may have many options any one of which would be acceptable to God. On the whole, God wants us to act in unselfish, giving, loving ways to follow the pattern that he sets forth in the life of his son. Many options will exist for us in life, many choices available to us and God maybe fine with those as long as we choose the path that is loving and giving.
