The funny thing about choices is that if you could always choose what you wanted to begin with, you might miss out on some of the best things in life. Like a child, we think we know what is best; we resent the authority of our parents without realizing that, by restricting us, they are giving us more choices in the future when we are capable of knowing what we truly want. How do you know what choices to make when you have not seen all the options out there? If God gave us the command to choose whatever our heart desires, we may never realize better things that are waiting for us. In a way, God's rules and restrictions, in turn, liberates us from a limited life and gives us something more to look forward to. When we see our restrictions on earth, we think we know what is the best, but in fact, the best is yet to come.
