Destiny or Choice?

I've been thinking a lot lately about some of my desires, my calling, my choices and my destiny. Lately, God has been teaching me so much about how to live life and it goes against so much of how people teach us to live. Some people think that our life is planned out for us, that we have a set destiny and that is true to an extent. It's true in the fact that if we know Jesus, our destiny is Heaven which should be our goal in life anyway.
But Heaven isn't something for when we die, God wants us to discover Heaven and bring it to earth! That is our destiny. How that comes about really isn't that big of a deal. I think that's where God puts talents and gifts in us and says "Ok, you know the agenda. Here are the things I've given you to make it happen. What ideas do you have? How do you want to do this?".
It's called co-creating with God. I'm not saying that God doesn't give us direction, but I also don't believe that he plans out our every move and our every step. When you simply seek first His Kingdom, everything else simply falls into place. We remove so much of the conflict and confusion in our lives when we just live with that simple goal. It's simple in the fact that the "how" isn't complicated. If you know the heart of God, and you know that He wants you to help Him complete our destiny, then you also know that He doesn't get all worked up when you decide to do something that He didn't straight up tell you to do.
 I know for a fact that God LOVES to give us the desires of our heart. He has given me what I want countless times, because He is good and He LOVES us! If you mentioned that there was something you wanted and your best friend found out and got it for you, you wouldn't say "Oh but you didn't tell me this is what I wanted so I can't receive this from you"....NO!!!!! You would feel loved that they listened to your heart, your desires and gave you what you wanted. It's just another aspect of God's love.
It's the enemy that makes you think that God is up there like a GPS saying, turn right at the stop sign....turn left at the light! It's the enemy that makes us think that if we don't do exactly what God says then we wont end up living the best life we possibly can. I think that co-creating with God, using our talents and gifts that He gave us to further His ultimate plan is living our life the best way we possibly can. It's how He loves us. And oh how He loves us!
