"It was not you who chose me, but I who chose you and appointed you to go and bear fruit that will remain." (John 15: 16).
It is hard enough to believe that God planned for you to be where you are at this moment doing what you are doing. But to be told that God chose you before the foundation of the world to be who you are at the this time will simply be incredible beyond compare. Read what follows below from Ephesians 1: 3 - 4 and believe and stop being a Doubting Thomas. (John 20: 24 - 29).
"Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us in Christ with every spiritual blessing in the heavens, as he chose us in him, before the foundation of the world, to be holy and without blemish before him." (Ephesians 1: 3 - 4).
What do you know about Divine Providence? Below is some of what the Church teaches about Divine Providence:
"God created the universe and keeps it in existence by his Word, the Son "upholding the universe by his word of power" (Heb 1:3), and by his Creator Spirit, the giver of life." (CCC 320).
321 "Divine providence consists of the dispositions by which God guides all his creatures with wisdom and love to their ultimate end." (CCC 321 and follows).
Today is the feast of St Matthias who was chosen before the foundation of the world to replace Judas.
