I Choose You (2015 NEDA Week)


I choose you.

God chooses each of us.
 
Most of us, however, are all too familiar with rejection. Many of us have been bullied, passed over and heartbroken. Simply put: we weren’t chosen. But God actively chooses us.

“I have chosen you and have not cast you away.”

Isaiah 41:9

Again, we’re valuable investments; again, we’re tremendously loved. We don’t need to earn or prove it. There’s nothing which can make God stop loving any of us- nothing!

“For I am persuaded that neither death nor life, nor angels nor principalities nor powers, nor things present nor things to come, nor height nor depth nor any other created thing, shall be able to separate us from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.”

Romans 8:38-39

And numbers on a scale, whatever they may be, certainly do not factor into His choosing.

So, today, take a cue from God Himself: choose yourself! Choose to accept and love, not hate and reject, yourself! You are worth the choosing!
