Am I chosen?


To the person being chosen it means life.

The one who loves flies, runs, and is glad, he is free and not bound. He gives all for all, because he rests in one who is supreme above all things, from whom every good thing flows and goes forth. Thomas A Kempis.

In today’s world being chosen means that someone else had to be rejected. Look at beauty pageants, sport teams, competitions. One person's loss is someone else's gain.

Doesn't it feel great if someone loves you? Chooses you for who you are? Not because you HAD to be randomly picked out of a crowd. Not because of your looks, the fact that you might be of benefit to them or they need you for whatever reason.  Simply because you are unique. Special.

I read the following phrase somewhere once "Don't make someone your priority simply because you are their decision". It is so true. Don't be someone's second best because you might feel you are not good enough to be chosen.  Afraid of ending up alone.  

We are all "chosen ones" in God's eyes and we are loved and accepted by the special people in our lives who cares about us
