And He said to them, “Follow Me, and I will make you fishers of men.” Immediately they left their nets and followed Him.

He Picked You

The calling of Jesus Christ was so compelling to His disciples that they left everything they knew to be a part of His mission. Jesus wanted them to know that salvation was not simply a future endeavor, but rather an opportunity for their greatest fulfillment while being on the planet. Nothing has changed.

If by faith you have trusted in the Lord Jesus Christ, you need to know that He has hand selected you to be a part of His Kingdom. Not only does He look forward to presenting you blameless before His father with great joy, but He wants you to presently live a life that has significance and purpose through Him. He created your personality, temperaments, and has gifted you to serve Him in a way that makes your life most fulfilling.

The good news is that you can start RIGHT NOW. The best time to enjoy God and be used by Him is presently. He loves you and desires your best. As you worship Him, He will use you to edify other believers and advance His Kingdom everywhere you go. No life is more fulfilling than a life that owns the fact that Jesus picked you and wants you to be your best for him.

Perhaps you can pray…“Lord Jesus, I thank you for saving me and having a plan for my life that is the most fulfilling. Right now, I want You to have all the control of my life. I will go where you want me to go, do what you want me to d,o and most importantly be who you want me to be. Open up the pathway for me to go and let me be open to being your hands, feet, and mouthpiece wherever you lead. I am all yours. Amen.”
