The Chosen Ones

Matthew 13:16
16But blessed are your eyes because they see, and your ears because they hear.

In the scripture above Jesus was addressing the disciples because they wanted to understand why he spoke in parables. Jesus explained that it wasn't meant for everyone to understand his teaching but those who did, were blessed and meant to see and hear. The truth is, it's not always meant for everyone to understand what we see and hear spiritually but they are only to see the outcome. God has blessed us because there is a role for us to play. The next time God gives us revelation and we try to explain it to someone else, if they don't see it, don't be alarmed or upset. It only means that we have been chosen by God to see and hear.

Matthew 22:14
14"For many are invited, but few are chosen."

It's time to look at every area of our lives and see where we've only been invited and where we've been chosen. Have we missed the boat on anything because it wasn't meant for us or because we've been afraid to be one of the chosen ones?
