Is there such a fight between Fate and Free will? Well, I think of it like this...Fate IS destiny. In that nature, our decisions are pre-destined and we don't even know it. So in reality, are we making our own decisions?
In rare cases, people are aware of their fate. In those same cases, people find themselves trying to run from it by doing what they WANT to do (Free Will) rather than what they're SUPPOSE to do (Fate). But what happens in the end? Don't we eventually find our way? Don't all our decisions eventually lead to what we were destined to do, say, become and be?
The truth of the matter is, we can NEVER escape our Fate. It is written. It is embedded in us. For example, you could find all kinds of ways to make 4 right? 2 + 2, 5-1, 4*1...but at the end of the day, it all equals '4' right? Those options are your free will, but fate is the 4. Number 4 will remain the same and even when you try to find loopholes to prove it wrong, you're indirectly proving it right.
So why do we sometimes run from our fate and run to the very things God is trying to prevent us from so that we don't get hurt? Th truth of the matter is that God is a gentleman. He's not going force us to serve him. It is indeed a choice. He'll let us experience things and all that, but we are never fully complete because what we're searching for is him and it is in him that we will truly find answers to life's questions as well as our hearts desires.
So go ahead and keep testing the waters in your careers and relationships etc...what you'll eventually find is that you will never truly be fulfilled in this life unless you stop and realize that you are not in control, but he is.
