Why me Lord?

This morning I started my reading when a verse dropped into my heart- in all thy ways acknowledge him and he shall direct thy paths.

A couple of cross references later, I landed on this set of passages and just could not let them go.

Here is a great warrior David processing the question many of us may ask. In short the question comes down to – Why me?

Out of billions of people and souls that exist in this vast universe and God chose him and his house to execute a Divine purpose.

As leaders, we may never have battles as great as David but we see a glimpse of his thought process and his adoration.

Why me?

The answer for each of us may just simply be:

⁃ Because I AM the sovereign god and I chose you.

⁃ Because I saw you before the beginning of time and I see the end as I am all knowing and all present.

⁃ Because he sees his magnificent work and says- it is good.

⁃ Because he says that we are beautifully and wonderfully made.

⁃ Because he is not a God that makes mistakes.

⁃ Because he loves us and trusts us with his precious vision.

If we just surrender and say:

As for me and my house, we choose to serve you.

And

Nevertheless, according to your word, we will execute the order.

Be blessed

Be a blessing!

“However, the Lord, the God of Israel, chose me before all my father’s house to be king over Israel forever. For He chose Judah to be the ruler; and of the house of Judah he chose the house of my father; and among the sons of my father

He was pleased to make me king over all Israel; And of all my sons, for the Lord has given me many sons, He has chosen Solomon my son to sit upon the throne of the kingdom of the Lord over Israel.

And He said to me, Solomon your son shall build My house and My courts, for I have chosen him to be My son, and I will be his father. I will establish his kingdom forever if he loyally and continuously obeys My commandments and My ordinances, as he does today.”

1 Chronicles 28:4-7 AMPC
