"But you are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, His own special people, that you may proclaim the praises of Him who called you out of darkness into His marvelous light..."
Throughout history, God has claimed for Himself a people to be His very own prized possession. Believers in Jesus Christ are the people God has chosen to possess. We may be ordinary people, but because God owns us, our lives take on immeasurably great value. God chooses people to be the objects of His unmerited favor and grace, not because of their worthiness or anything they do to deserve it. At the heart of God’s choosing a people is His love. Nothing can adequately explain the love of God for sinners, it must be received by faith.
Realize that because of Jesus, there is greatness inside you. As you study and meditate on the Word of God, you will realize your true potential. You’ll discover who you really are so you can live the good life to which He has called you!
