A Chosen people

Good morning God's special possession. Happy Thursday. God loves you. I love you. Praise God for hearing and answering our prayers. Think of a few ways that you can show your gratitude to God this week. This morning’s verse is from 1 Peter 2:9-10. But you are a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, God’s special possession, that you may declare the praises of him who called you out of darkness into his wonderful light. Once you were not a people, but now you are the people of God; once you had not received mercy, but now you have received mercy. We all go through an instant status change when we become Christians. Have you ever had a major status change? Maybe you graduated from school, became a parent, or got a promotion at work. While we have to work hard to achieve a promotion or graduate from school, belonging to God's family is free and available to anyone. Our status before God is completely changed simply through faith and grace. Spend some time thanking God for His incredible gift to you. God loves you. Have a blessed day.
