Man has been given the freedom to choose.
One may not be able to choose circumstances, but he can choose how to respond to those circumstances (Matt.25:26,27)
God will judge us according to our works, that is according to the choices we have made in life (Rev.20:12)
Choices involve acceptance and rejection; acceptance of good and rejection of evil. Those who choose good receive favor, but those who choose evil invite trouble (Pro.11:27).
