John 15:16 Ye have not chosen me, but I have chosen you, and ordained you, that ye should go and bring forth fruit, and that your fruit should remain: that whatsoever ye shall ask of the Father in my name, he may give it you.
I remember a story of two little boys that were arguing with one another as to who was loved more by their parents.
The one boy emphatically said, he was loved much more than the other little fellow because the other little boy was adopted, and he was not really the son of his parents.
The adopted boy hearing that statement from his little opponent friend, squared off and poked his little chest out and said, you're parents had to except you because you were born of your mother and they didn't have a choice, but my parents CHOSE me, because where I came from, there were 12 other kids besides me in that room!
Wow! that's tellin' it, wouldn't you say? I really like that story because when I hear it, I think of the verse above that let's us know that Jesus chose us! ...then he goes on to tell us about using his Name and getting whatever we pray for, that's why you need to use good wisdom when you pray, you may get what you ask for and find out that you really didn't want it after all.
Remember today as you face whatever circumstance comes your way, that you were chosen by God, now it's up to us to show him how much we appreciate it by being obedient to him and living our lives for him everyday!
Let's bring some honor to the Name of Jesus! Let's lift him up instead of ourselves, won't that be a great thing to do? ...Well you know it is!
