Why me, Lord?

Occasionally I need to be humbled by the fact that God chose me. Though I was not a physical son of Abraham, He chose me. Though I am rebellious like the rest, He chose me. Though there was nothing in me to distinguish me, He chose me (Rom 9:15). To him who is given much, much is required (Luk 12:28). Lord, help me to walk in a manner worthy of my calling (Eph 4:1). Help me to lay hold of that for which you laid hold of me (Phil 3:12).
