Free Will: To Decide and To Do

Free will (also known as freedom of choice), consists basically of two things, not just one as many times it is wrongfully interpreted.

And those two things are: The faculty to decide and the faculty to do, which many times look alike but are not the same thing.

If we carefully analyze this simple distinction, we will see how everything turns clear. The human being usually calls free will something that he or she decides which, many times, just can't be executed. Well, if it not could be accomplished, where then would be that free will? Freedom of choice is simply that, the freedom to choose whatever we desire or want but not necessarily means that we could perform or execute that which we have chosen.

If we decide or choose something impossible to us, how then can we exercise or execute that free will?

The very same thing happens with the spiritual gifts, and it is because of this that many of us cannot manifest the spiritual gifts that exist within us: We need the power, the faculty to carry out into a complete effect that which we want to perform.

From where does that power flow? From the united power of the faculty to decide and the faculty to do. In other words, from our will, from our liberty, from the exercise of our true volition.

Thus we see, for example, the case of a person when he or she or has decided to commit suicide, since passing that moment that person only has the faculty to do, because the faculty to decide has been cancelled or deprived from that person by the confusion or perturbation caused by a intense, unbearable suffering.

In other ocassions, as it happens in the case of the vices, the faculty to do seems to be gone, vanished, and it only remains at hand the faculty to decide, the faculty to choose, although crippled by the lack of the faculty to fulfill or accomplish the decision.

It is only when we are in the presence of both things, of both elements, when we are before a free will.
