Yes its free will, you may live your life any way you like and god wont interfere, until you die that is. im an evangelical- christian, i used to be catholic, i enjoy telling people about Christ my lord and savior, i believe because of many testimonies, and my personal experiences with the holy spirit, and the power of god manifest itself in my life, i have had a pastor touch my forehead in the name of Christ and have me collapse and fall to my knees in praise with an uncontrollable joy and happiness when the holy spirit came to me and freed me from spirits of tribulation, it was a feeling like no other, i felt light as a feather yet heavy as iron, nonetheless by now you think im a complete nutjob since you dont know who our God is. Christ is my healer he is my strength my shield, i am willing to die for Christ much like he died for me. I will not force my belief upon you, i do not force it upon anyone, for god sent us as messengers of the good news that through Christ we shall be saved, we are not a people to force others to praise the almighty god, we are just one to offer it. I know i will not convince you to believe in our god, but i will pray for you, for only god knows your troubles and tribulations, only he can heal them fully, I pray that he reveal his grace and mercy and love to you like he had done it with me. i just ask that when God shows and manifests his great power to you i wish you do not turn around and ignore it and say, "it is just the wind" For there will come a time when no one will be able to ignore his great power, and i hope that you are with Christ when he does so because it will be like a blazing fire that devours all inequity that is in its path. Also no worries just about everyone i know is an atheist, but i pray that, that will soon change. May god bless you and fill your cup with overflowing blessing, may he make your days long and give you everlasting life and prosperity through Christ.
God bless
