He Chose Us

Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places in Christ, just as He chose us in Him before the foundation of the world, that we would be holy and blameless before Him.

Ephesians 1:3-4

God chose to give us salvation. Why? We didn't ask Him for it. We weren't worthy of it. It's because he chose us. The next verse says, "In love He predestined us to adoption as sons through Jesus Christ to Himself, according to the kind intention of His will," When were were dead in sins, he chose us, loved us and made a way for us to be saved. Now, it's our job to accept that love, and allow Him to wash away our sins and be made new people in Him. As we accept Holy Spirit into our lives, we can live a life of victory in Him.

Lord, thank You so much for choosing us when we were unworthy, sinful and unlovely. Thank You for making a way for us to become new in You, washed clean from sin. I pray that I may be someone who can share Your love and help other people find this cleansing and freedom in You.
