"You did not choose me; I chose you and appointed you to go and bear much fruit, the kind of fruit that endures."

(John 15.16 GNB)

God chose Abraham. He chose David. He chose Mary. He chose Peter and Paul. He chose you and me.

And the rest is our choice. Do I choose to follow him faithfully? Do I choose to obey him daily in everything? Do I chose to bear much fruit that endures?
