Why Did God Choose Me?
Through all of my ugliness
and all of my sinful ways,
I sometimes wonder why,
God didn’t pass on by.
Why?
I asked myself,
how could this be,
that God has chosen someone,
someone like me.
Why did he choose me?
Does anyone know?
I was a liar,
a cheater,
a shyster,
a runner on the go.
He didn’t have to choose me
however, I know that
and that is certainly a fact.
I remember the night
when he called my name,
I was messed up on drugs,
just playing the game.
When he first called my name
I ignored his call,
I was not yet done getting high,
smoking an eight ball.
Again I asked, why did God choose me?
I was so messed up on drugs,
I was blind, and could not see.
He called me a second time
when I was getting high,
and I tried to ignore him
but, I felt his touch, and started to cry.
I yield to his call the night after that,
I came to the church
I stepped to the altar,
I felled to my knees,
I cried out to God,
“Please God, save me please"!
Was this my choice?
No!
I never said I wanted to be saved,
It was the choice of Jesus Christ,
who went to the grave.
Now, I know why God has chosen me
so that I could give him glory, honor and praise
and everyone that has ever known me,
would truly be amazed.
"God Chose Me!"
Gods' Chosen people
The kingdom of Heaven,” he said, “is like a king who arranged a wedding for his son. He sent his servants to summon those who had been invited to the festivities, but they refused to come. Then he tried again; he sent some more servants, saying to them, ‘Tell those who have been invited, “Here is my wedding-breakfast all ready, my bullocks and fat cattle have been slaughtered and everything is prepared. Come along to the festivities.”’ But they took no notice of this and went off, one to his farm, and another to his business.
Matthew 22: 1-5
For many are called, but few are chosen.
