God Chose You

²⁶For consider your calling, brothers:^(A) not many of you were wise according to worldly standards,^[a] not many were powerful, not many were of noble birth. ²⁷But^(B) God chose what is foolish in the world to shame the wise;^(C) God chose what is weak in the world to shame the strong; ²⁸God chose what is low and despised in the world, even^(D) things that are not, to^(E) bring to nothing things that are, ²⁹so^(F) that no human being^[b] might boast in the presence of God. ³⁰And because of him^[c] you are in Christ Jesus, who became to us^(G) wisdom from God,^(H) righteousness and^(I) sanctification and^(J) redemption, ³¹so that, as it is written,^(K) "Let the one who boasts, boast in the Lord."

This verse was a huge encouragement to me. To me it said, "God doesn't care about how much you know, how strong you think you are, or how popular you are... God still wants you." What an ecouragement! Just look at some of the lines... "God chose what is foolish [...] to shame the wise." or "God chose what is weak to shame the strong." What I got from that is that God CAN and WILL use you... IF you let him. God can do so many great things with so many people that wouldn't be qualified as "great" by our society. God will use you. Be available for him.

Have a great day!
