The Calling

You may not be a religous person, and that is all right because I am and what I am about to quote comes from the New Testament. I heard it preached at College Church in Northampton Ma, from Pastor Steve Behlke and I think I should share it with you..............From 1st Corinthians, chapter 1, verse 26 thru 31.............Consider your own call, sisters and brothers: not many of you were wise by human standards, not many powerful, not many were of noble birth, but God chose what is foolish in the world to shame the wise; God chose what is weak in the world to shame the strong; God chose what is low and despised in the world, things that are not, to reduce to nothing things that are, so that no one might boast in the presence of God. God is the source of your life in Christ Jesus, who became for us wisdom from God, and righteousness and sanctification and redemption, in order that, as it is written, " Let the one who boasts, boast in the Lord"............
