Chosen By God | God wants you

It’s never fun being picked last, but Douglas has learned that we were chosen by God (and he always picks us first!).

Douglas had a hard day at school because he got picked last for dodgeball. He usually gets picked very early because he's good at catching the ball because he likes to be the goalie in soccer. But everyone found out that he can only pay attention to one ball at a time, and if he has more than one ball coming at him he just freezes, so now he's very easy to get out, you just have to throw more than one ball! So now he gets chosen last which hurts his feelings. But Douglas remembered something very important; we were chosen by God. You are God's favorite. We all are! God picks you first every time, and me too. That might not work in dodgeball but it does in the Kingdom of God. You are God's favorite you, and I am God's favorite me. The Bible says that we are "God's special possession" and that He has called us to shine His light in this dark world.

Bible passages related to being chosen by God:
1 Peter 2:9 | "God’s special possession"
Ephesians 1:3-6 | "He chose us in him before the creation of the world"
Deuteronomy 7:6 | "The Lord your God has chosen you out of all the peoples on the face of the earth to be his people"
Ephesians 2:19 | Part of God's Household

Douglas Talks is a Christian video series meant to help parents and teachers explain Biblical truths to their kids in a way that is fun and easy to understand. Join Douglas as he learns to live God's way!
