For you are a people sacred to the Lord, your God; he has chosen you from all the nations on the face of the earth to be a people peculiarly his own (Deut. 7:6). It was because the Lord loved you, that he freed you (Deut. 7:8). Understand, then, that the Lord, your God, is God indeed, the faithful God who keeps his merciful covenant down to the thousandth generation toward those who love him and keep his commandments (Deut. 7:9).
Sisters and brothers, we are sacred to the Lord, our God! We are treasured by Him; Exodus 19:5 – For you are my treasured possession. He has chosen you – he has chosen you for his own, you are his beloved. He has chosen you to serve Him. You are his.
The Lord has given us free will, freedom to choose to follow him. He gave us this freedom because he loves us and wants our love for him to be our choice. When we do not choose him, he remains faithful to us. He loves us regardless of our faults, our sins, our failures. He loves us even when we reject Him.He is the all merciful Father, who will forgive us when we return to Him. He loves us, unconditionally! He sent his only Son, to die on the cross, in hopes of gaining our love! Let us choose him. Let us thank him and praise him all the days of our lives.
His love for us, his beloved sons and daughters, is unending & unconditional!
God bless!
