My mother, who is a spiritual woman, has always talked about God's free will with humanity. One of the things she talks about is how some people have children that they weren't really supposed to have, which is part of God's "free will". So my question is this: Does God even care about the...

Oof, I don’t even know how to start this. I used to be heavily active on this forum for a little while a few years ago because I was suffering heavily from OCD and was always seeking assurance and wanting answers for my questions. Sometime between then and now, I got heavily involved with...
