If u love god and are becoming more like christ (the purpose for which u were called), then u r one of the ppl god has chosen for eternal glory b4 the world began, and in ur life nw, ev'thing tat happens is a part of his sovereign plan for you. So even tho the train of ur life may take some difficult turns and endure some bumpy tracks, it will never be derailed. Regardless of wat happens as a result of ur decisions, or even how inadedquate ur decision making is, God is still on his throne and u can have the confidence that he will cause ev'thing (even the bad things) to work together for ur good.

Psalm23(Source: Decisions,decisions(hw,& hw not to mk them))

oh hw gd it sounds...but in real life...

ratatouille has this moment where this rat, remy fought all odds to be a chef..he knows he has the talent but he's a rat...but one night he refused his dad to leave the dream even as he saw all the odds against him. i think that moment altho brief was definitive.
could see that he almost gave up and gave in but somehow he didnt...
but thats show, and for us, it really is not as simple.
well, definitive moments or not...life goes on..
"And we are all essentially alone, but only in Christ can we (truly) share our lives together"
