Hi Jenny.
Everyone uses their agency, on a daily basis, do you get out of bed in the morning? If you do you use your agency, if you don't you also use your agency.
Ah, but you are asking about choosing between good and evil, which are relative terms, what is evil to one, may be good to another or vice versa. A good example of this is Honesty. I believe in being Honest, as a matter of fact, I believe I am honest to a fault. I say things how I see them, with out regard for others feelings often times(though I am working on this)...Don't be asking me if you look it your pants though, you will probably not like the answer. So, being Honest, which is a very highly good and positive thing, can be turned evil.
Evil things such as Murder can be good. How you ask, well, if you murder someone that is causing many other people to die, or hurting people unnecessarily it is better to kill one to save the many. And so it can be a good thing.
But, you are asking How I choose to wisely use my agency to choose between good and evil. I think, before I speak or act. If I act or say this thing, how will that make the people around me feel(this is something I recently learned, it is helping with the honesty thing) That is what is best though, is to think how your, words, thoughts, or actions will effect the people around you, and would you like it if people effected you in that same way?
Cheers.
