I'm searching for this answer. I know that if you have heard that everything happens for a reason then I ,also, know that you have heard that God gives us the freedom to choose the path we want to travel. If that is true, does that mean that the road we choose to walk was meant to happen through God?
Question for the people who believes in God (everyone else stay out!!!)

Anything you feel strongly about will bring you closer to it mixed with action and optimistic patience.
I would say yes, but that comes through praying and seeking God for guidance on decisions you make in life.
Your asking about god on a porn forum? Just do the best at the things you like doing. There will be failures on the way (like this thread)but don't give up.
This isn't a porn thread so it doesn't matter. People talk about God when they are sinning so again it doesn't matter. We are all born into sin so again it doesn't really matter.
I don't know if I would use the word ordained, but I would say if you seeked him and feel that he has guided you then you have to believe God would not lead you down the wrong path.
Not quite sure I understand the question. Can you rephrase it, please?
For example, someone offers you a full scholarship to college and a good job with a good company when you graduate;however, you would rather be a music producer. Music never takes off for you. Your 40, living with your parents, no benefits, multiple kids that has mothers with drama. The question is, was this still the path that was meant for you?

"God's a big kid with an ant farm."
These are assumptions:
People define one's path in life from a socio-economic perspective, which is reflected in your example. Free will affords us the choice to be bankers or bums. Our accumulated knowledge & experiences determine our choices.
God defines one's path in life by the positive & negative influence one has on others' spiritual journey towards a greater relationship with Him. Whether one is rich or poor, we still impact others' lives positively or adversely. Do we bring others to a greater understanding of God or do we divert them from the truth? Each experience one has challenges him/her to see all things as an opportunity to bring oneself & others closer to each other & to God. Do we use our experiences to separate ourselves from one another & hurt each other or do we use it to help each other? That's the true definition of one's path in life.
Our will is carried out in our pursuit to satisfy our egos & desires. God's will is carried out thru our relationships.
I gave my opinion on this a long time ago. GOD has a path for you (because he knows what's best) This is your life's work. You will always feel out of place if you don't do your life's work. The thing is you have to find this on your own. GOD will give you clues and put people in your path to help you find this life's work..but it will always come down to decisions YOU make.
Whenever young cats come at me with that dumb shit, I make them watch Menace to Society..look how many people GOD put in Kane's path (Grandparents, Sharif and his dad, Ronnie, even the dude in jail) He didn't listen and ended up dead.

Another definition of God could be
Compare it with some scriptures in the Bible especially Gensis and what scientist are now calling Quantum mechanics or physics and a new God appears. One who serves us instead of ordaining, rewarding and punishing.
Dawg, that was a fictitious story someone wrote. How does this relate to the real world? You can assume that story MAY play out in reality but, still there's no connection between God and the series of events that played out in the film.
True, it was. However, art imitates life. Can't tell you how many 20/20, 60 minute, MSNBC, and A&E specials of real cats having similar stories to Kane's story, in real life.
Everyone has an individual they know, that was a knucklehead, entities were there to steer that individual in the right direction, and that individual decided against it. Happens every day, all the time without even watching a movie.
Plus, Christians base their lives on fictitious accounts and nobody seems the wiser, at least here in the west.
To answer the OP's question, you are given free will, period. "Everything happens for a reason" is some bullsh!t poor people made up when they couldn't figure out why something happened to them. One of those useless sayings. Sh!t has no basis, biblically or worldy.
Whatever, happened to you, that is what "God intended" to happen to you. Out of every situation, look to be enlightened. That is your best bet.
Have you ever stressed over a situation and didn't know what to do and someone came out of the blue and shot you some advice that helped you in your decision making? That's what I'm talking about.
But, there's absolutely no connection between that event & the series of events that happened in the film.
I have to agree. The cunt has shit for brains. This the same bitch that feeds her dog chocolate.
What??? I've never had a dog in my life. Your really off kilter, dude.
So that wasn't you that rolled up in the dog thread talkin about how you feed your mutt anything including chocolate? (I know it was you) if not, MY BAD, but you're still a dumb bitch.
Now, to answer your question, does everything happen for a reason? Yes. It's called "causality".
Cause & Effect.
Cause = Your mother was raped
Effect = A stupid cunt named esther is born.
Fuck outa here and stop asking dumb questions and making "blond" commentary.
Peace,
My grandfather always told me that you should hear the Voice of God and feel His unseen hand when you're choosing your career. He said that this was especially true of the "younger generation" (meaning folks my age) because we have far greater choices than our forefathers. I think that there is a single path that is the truest and infinite others that may or may not be spiritually fulfilling.
This is wisdom from my grandfather, an old school True Believer. I'm not religious but I thought you might find it helpful.
Peace.

go to church if you want to have a theological discussion that excludes rational thinkers. because you not getting any answers that make sense. just regurgitated banter that is looking for another dummy to recycle it.
Yes. You have the right to feel like your choosing your own path in ignorance.
This is to make the game of life interesting.
But the reality of it, is it has already occurred.
Time is an Illusion of a series of events that have already occurred.
The best way to look at it is like this. Imagine if the world was a Sims game. For those who don't know what that is it is a simulation. There could be several outcomes for the end of the game depending on how you play the game and move your pieces.
If you don't believe on God then use it for knowledge because that saying could apply to all of us. The things that you do now can effect how your life will turn out and end.

GOD is like a downward sloped hill. You are like water flowing down this hill. You have the right to pick your path. Some will will pick the rocks to pass thru, some will pick the grass, all will accumulate debris. GOD will know and you will know what you have consumed. It's simple.
