Psalm 78:67-72

Psalm 78:67-72
English Standard Version (ESV)

  When I pick ice cream flavors, I am completely unrestrained.  I can choose any flavor I want, and it's my choice.  It doesn't make much sense to criticize me for choosing differently than you might have.
  God chooses his beloved people.  I believe that God chooses them so that they might be an example to the world, so that all the world may come to worship him as God and King.  It's God's choice--and despite all our failings, God chooses to love us.  Let us not criticize God for the choices he makes--let us give thanks that there is grace and love enough for God to choose us.

May you rest in the confidence that God chooses you
