Does god know whats going to happen or are we like a sparrow being pushed around by the gigantic powers unseen? Do we simply learn to coincide, so we may get what we want done? Use our wings to glide, turn, and fly faster and faster or are we on tracks?
 
My road will be found no matter what. No matter the madness of my soul nor the speed of my vicious turns, ups, and downs. Finding the right road, cant be done, Because all we can do is find our road.

I don't really lean toward either free-will or destiny, but perhaps somewhere in between.
If there are winds about me, I may choose to glide on them, but I know that the path of my flight is, ultimately, of my own choosing.

I think there should be a set reason for ultimate efficiency (like a main CPU and not individual will), but I doubt there is one (as we all have free-will) and I don't even think there is a "purpose" besides a bunch of particles coming together due to different conditions.

God has given us freewill it is up to us to use it wisely.

With anything hidden, looking outside for God's agenda, may leave one feeling rather alone, or dissatisfied. Being present with where we are, accepting where we are at is one element of our consciousness which gives answers to questions of doubt, of lonliness. Bliss, the bliss of having consciousness freed of doubt, where the companionship of "higher" wisdom comes in as a liberating message, has to be free to operate without a condition. God has no conditional relationship to us, or to the birds... it simply exists for us to see, or not. In like manner, we exemplify higher order first through silence, we "get" out of the way.
