We can choose to go to church or we can choose to go to the bar. Where we go is OUR choice, not His.

Sister,
What your post misses is that we were all born and shapen in inquity, estranged from God without hope in the world. The world is fallen and there is none that seeks after God. Chan is correct, that it is only the mercy of God that CAUSES anyone to repent. Fortunely, he is not a respector of persons and will pursue each and everyone of us until we "see" His salvation.
Again, in your last sentence you are mistaken, "we would go no where, except that God gave us the 'desire and will' to do so. Our freewill is very, very limited within the boundaries of where God placed us in the earth.
