I kind of have a love/hate relationship with agency. I value my agency, yet I almost wish I didn't have it. Ages ago, I would have gladly given up my agency to become a tool in God's hands, but now I know it doesn't work like that. God's plan requires us to be allowed to make our own decisions, no matter how much better God is at making decisions than we are. We are supposed to make our own mistakes and learn from them. Bad decisions are part of the plan, and it's important that my decisions be my own. So, I have to retain and continue to exercise my agency, no matter how much I wish I could hand it over to someone wiser than me.
