walking the path God already knows – v3

it is true, by free will,
the freedom God has given
we choose the steps of our lives
choices who to follow
which way to turn
whether toward the world
or toward our God

yet we are walking the path
God already knows
the pages already written
yet living life in the moment
choices as we make them
the journey in real time
in the way of mortal man

this poem and all of the following poems are from The Shack
and are about trying to understand or comprehend
the ideas of free will, predestination,
and omniscience, an all-knowing God.
