.jpg "You are Chosen by God")
This meditation cd starts with an abbreviated deep
breathing time, then establishes the truth of God’s
divine providence of choosing those who are His own
possession and the peace that comes from being cared
For, watched over and guided into his perfect will and
plan for all creation.
As you come to him, the living Stone—rejected by men
but chosen by God and precious to him— you also, like
living stones, are being built into a spiritual house to be
a holy priesthood, offering spiritual sacrifices acceptable
to God through Jesus Christ. For in Scripture it says:
"See, I lay a stone in Zion, chosen and precious
cornerstone, and the one who trusts in him will never be
put to shame."Now to you who believe, this stone is
precious. But to those who do not believe, "The stone the
builders rejected has become the capstone,”and, "A
stone that causes men to stumble and a rock that makes
them fall." They stumble because they disobey the
message—which is also what they were destined for.
But you are a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy
nation, a people belonging to God, 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.
