Chosen!

For Wednesday, September 27, 2023:

Romans 9:16 NLT: “It is God who decides to show mercy. We can neither choose it nor work for it.”

We are saved by grace, by God’s mercy. God designed us, and knew us in our mother’s womb. And way back then, he called many to become children of God, to be adopted into the Holy Family. God gave us free choice, so must say yes to his invitation.

We are not called according to our good and bad works. We can’t “earn” our way into God’s favor, nor can we be disqualified. We have already been chosen.

God explained to Moses that he can show mercy and compassion to anyone he chooses. If you’re reading this, odds are that you were hand-picked by God himself!

Rejoice that you were culled for the Kingdom!
