Choosing makes our Destiny Destiny? A chance or a choice? To be awaited for or to be achieve? There are many definitions that can define destiny. But we, we are the makers of our own destiny. According to the Bible, our Heavenly Father let us decide on our own. He gave us freewill and freedom in making decisions in our lives. But some people believed that their love ones came from what they called “destiny”. That everything happened in their lives are their destiny, even though they won’t do something about their lives, they believed that their destiny is already ok, that already decided!.

Making choices in the present can affect our future. For example, a 20-years old students choose to stop his study because he is having a hard time in catching their lessons, so as he stop, and decided not to continue his study his life become difficult, why? Because he choose to stop his study and so, his destiny and future did not happen as what he expected to be. He cannot blame God for what happened in his life, because it is his own choice that’s why his future has been affected. So as we believed, our destiny is based on the decision and choices we make today, so we need to be wise in choosing something in our life that can affect our future and destiny.
Therefore, I Conclude that destiny is not a matter of chance but a matter of choice because we are all born equal and good. There is no such as impression as a bad baby.
In our example, it is still quite clear that the effect of our choices on the outcome of our future has become quite evident. The destiny is that we cannot wait to just happen. Having a wise and great ability to choose a decision has achieved what they expect to be destined their future.
We are not born just waiting and waiting for what will happen to us in the future. The lord has given us the ability to think and choose what we deserve.
Our choice depends on the future of our future destiny. Our future depends on us. Whether it is a bad thing or a mistake our destiny is that we cannot blame it but ourselves only to choose our future.
