God Has Chosen
God loves you as though he has no choice: so completely has He chosen you. It is He Himself who mandates your next breath, and he who makes your heart to a cadence beat. He binds your atoms together, and reconstructs into you your food each day. It is by His breath each mind exists.
It is His will which causes you life, it is His hand which formed you to birth. Think with caution to all matter which is temporal, for we are born for more than this: we were born for eternal encounter.
Why do you think we crave relationship, yet are drawn to the beauty of expansive solitude as is seen from a mountaintop? This paradox illustrates the signature of God upon us. For others the ink is different, but the feeling still the same. We were carved from the earth and made for the void of choice, and in this choice God has chosen. Each one individually God Himself has chosen. His presence exists against you undeniably and unavoidably: He has chosen you!
It is His breath that you first breathed when the fluid drained from your lungs at birth, and it is He who sustained you each moment to this day. God has chosen and waits for you. Eternity is paused while you decide... Chose Love, chose Life. Chose to love Him as though there is no choice - relentlessly love Him, and excel toward His face. Completely chose to breathe His breath, so close to Him to live. You has God chosen, like no other could exist! Desire His encounter!
