“In him we were also chosen, having been predestined according to the plan of him who works out everything in conformity with the purpose of his will…”
Ephesians 1:11
“Therefore, as God’s chosen people, holy and dearly loved, clothe yourselves with compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience.”
Colossians 3:12
“For we know, brothers loved by God, that he has chosen you…”
1 Thessalonians 1:4
“But you are a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people belonging to God, that you may declare the praises of him who called you out of darkness into his wonderful light.”
1 Peter 2:9
God does not simply ALLOW people into His kingdom. There is no one who is part of the body of Christ who wasn’t expected, or who God had to make room for. Each one of us is CHOSEN, and each one of us has a PURPOSE in the Kingdom. God had (and always will have!) a REASON for choosing you. And even if it feels like there is no visible or tangible evidence of God’s purpose or reason in choosing you, remember…sometimes the INvisible and the INtangible things are the most POWERFUL, and serve in the ways closest to the spiritual workings of the Holy Spirit.
Live your life with confidence that there is something God has chosen YOU, over everyone else in the world, to do, and that you are an important and vital part of the body of Christ, because…
God does not choose poorly!
