For ever, day by day, is there a choice to be made by each soul. One may lead to happiness, joy; the other to confusion, to disturbing forces, to evil and to self-condemnation.

But the will is of self, else ye would not indeed be the child of the Creative and Living Force or God that ye are; but as an automaton.

Then exercise thyself, and bring that to pass in thy experience that will create for thee the environ of helpful hopefulness in the experience day by day.

Edgar Cayce Reading 1538-1
