Yes and no. At some point we have to say "I choose to follow your will, not my will God." God can sit there all day and night drawing us toward him, but as long as we resist, we resist

Does that mean you are stronger and have more power than God?

Does your question imply that (your) God isn't strong enough to be omnipotent in a universe that contains free wills other than His own?

My God encourages independent free will and thought and still is in total control of His creation.

No. But there's a difference between being called and being chosen. Many are called, but few are chosen. Those chosen are the ones who heed the calling.
