Called
February 21, 2008 by ~Bryant
“I was wondering — I mean — could there be some mistake? Because nobody called me and Scrubb, you know. It was we who asked to come here.” -Jill
“You would not have called me unless I had been calling you.”
-Aslan
– The Silver Chair
Oh, glorious! That He has called us!
We decieve ourselves into thinking that it is we who first cryed out to Him. That we are the initiator of the relationship. That we chose Him.
But if He had not revealed Himself to us, if He had not called us, we could not have responded. We would never be able to know Him, Who we need so desperately.
He calls us, He woos us, He tugs at our hearts.
He gently chips at away our glorified feelings of self-importance and self-sufficience.
So when you feel like calling out to Him,
know that He’s been calling you already.

“For He chose us in Him before the creation of the world
to be holy and blameless in His sight.”
-Ephesians 1:4
