God is sovereign. He even directs man’s “free will” to accomplish his purposes.

I am 'free' of any compulsion to 'steal' as it is not in my moral framework to do so. So I am not 'haunted'; I am just 'free' of such mental baggage.

Think same line of thinking follow 'free will'. If aligned to the 'Good'; one's will 'is' free. If not so 'aligned'; one's 'will' is challenged daily; hourly; moment to moment, perhaps; and so is NOT free. The 'alignment'; how one chooses to exercise 'will'; is as well; a free choice

For 'better'; or for worse. . .IMHO. . .
