The greatest director

I was reading a book, and it stated that some people call God a scriptwriter. A scriptwriter writes a script, and in the script, the writer states who the characters are, their emotions and the things they say and do. Some people describe this as God. God as our sovereign ruler, decides everything for us, our actions, our thoughts, which is why He knows everything about us.

As i thought more about it, God is sovereign, but i think He gives us the freedom to choose. I would say that God is more like a director. The script has been selected, the roles are given, whats going to happen God knows. When the script is being played out, the actors and actresses though they have a script to follow, they can choose to follow exactly, or choose to say something else but its still along the same lines of the script. So in life when we made decisions, i do sometimes feel that God gives us the choice, that either decision we make will ultimately end up according to His plan.

But this play cannot 'cut' and redo, its a one way show. So live your best for Him and make decisions wisely. The stage has been set, it will come to an end soon.
