Jesus Chose Me!

Scripture John 15:16 You did not choose Me, but I chose you and appointed you that you should go and bear fruit, and that your fruit should remain, that whatever you ask the Father in My name He may give you.

Observation: I wonder why Jesus chose me? I don’t feel as if I have any qualities that would draw Him to me, even as a child I was one of the last to be picked when playing a sport. Most of my life I felt as if I was an outcast and didn’t belong, but for some reason my Lord chose me. I don’t want to let Him down and I do want to bear fruit for Him. Since He chose me, He must have given me everything I need to perform whatever task He created me for so in faith I need to go out and honor Him.

Application: The thing I need to ask the Father in Jesus name is that He would grant my way with success as I go out to bear fruit. That the Holy Spirit would work through me and that I would glorify Him. I can’t think of anything more than I want but to please my Lord and to make Him proud that He chose me.

Prayer My Lord I am not worthy to be chosen, but I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me. Please strengthen and guide your servant today that it would bring a smile to your face. Thank you, Lord, for choosing me.
