We are responsible for ourselves.

Some believers people tell me that I have an advanced plan for my life and I should make it real . Therefore I am not responsible for anythings including my decisions .
Actually I don't agree with them but I need to know the trurh.

We make the decisions, I believe God loves us enough to let us make our choices. He knows what we'll do before we do it, but the choice is still ours. And believe the truth is in the Bible.

I want to say God wants to do many thing in our life, that is called destiny or fate.
So What are the limits between destiny and choice, and do we have free willing or not ??

Yes God wants to do great and mighty things in our life, but sometimes we limit Him by making wrong choices. Yes I believe we have free will and God respects our choices, even when they are wrong. I do not believe in fate. But the closer we are to God, seeking His will, we are more likely to make the right choice.

Whether God exists or not, you have free will. Christians preach about free will, and atheists agree we have free will. "God's Plan" doesn't make sense because it means that God determines our lives, rather than our own free will.

In any case, whether you believe or not, don't drop your responsibilities on "God" because your decisions are all you!
