Summary:

We all face times where we were not chosen. It starts early in life when someone doesn’t choose you to be part of their group or team. Remember being on the play ground and teams were chosen and you were not picked until last?

As we get older, we are not chosen for a job position, a leadership role, as a girl friend or boyfriend, or even as a representing realtor.

The closer the one not choosing you the harder it is to handle and the more it often hurts.

I was talking with a lady who had gone through a divorce and to make it worse, her ex husband had quickly remarried. Some things happened and much of her pent up emotions seemed to be needing to come out. She shared her anger, her pain, her disappointment and her frustration, then finally said, “I just wanted him to CHOOSE me!”

I said, “HE did.”

She new I meant that Jesus had chosen her.

We weren’t talking in person so she told me what I said made her cry.

In John 15:16 Jesus said, “You did not choose me, but I chose you…”

John 6:44 “No one can come to me unless the Father who sent me draws them…”

Salvation is a free gift offered to everyone. 2 Peter 3:9 makes it clear that God is “not wanting anyone to perish, but everyone to come to repentance.”

The Scriptures says that whosoever, or as it reads from the NIV, ““Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.” (Romans 10:13)

Heaven, life eternal, a relationship with God the Father through his Son, Jesus is offered to everyone and yet everyone is individually invited by the Spirit of God drawing them. They either ignore it, reject it or accept it.

This is a not a good example but it’s the best I have.

Let’s say the worlds most popular singer is hosting a free concert and everyone is invited but he still knocks on your door to ask you to come.

This is what God is doing for us. He is choosing to invite us, each of us. He is choosing us to be part of his family and it’s up to us to accept his invitation.

Don’t think you are just part of the crowd.

God sees you! By his Spirit he is personally inviting you.

Blessings in Christ,
Tim Dumas
