1 Peter 2:4 & 5 (NKJV)
Coming to Him as to a living stone, rejected indeed by men, but chosen by God and precious, you also, as living stones, are being built up a spiritual house, a holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ.
Ephesians 1:4 & 5 (NKJV)
Just as He chose us in Him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before Him in love, having predestined us to adoption as sons by Jesus Christ to Himself, according to the good pleasure of His will.

John 15:7 & 8 (NKJV)
"If you abide in Me, and My words abide in you, you will ask what you desire, and it shall be done for you. By this My Father is glorified, that you bear much fruit; so you will be My disciples."
1 Peter 2:9 & 10 (NKJV)
But you are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, His own special people, that you may proclaim the praises of Him who called you out of darkness into His marvelous light; who once were not a people but are now the people of God, who had not obtained mercy but now have obtained mercy.
Abba Father "Chosen" what a wonderful word, You created us in Your image and then because we said "Yes" to Your Son Jesus Christ You recreated us in His image that made us right so that we could be called Your family filled with Your love, Your forgiveness, Your joy, Your peace, and Your light penetrating the darkness of the world, a beacon of Hope for all to see; it is in the name of our Lord and our Savior Christ Jesus that we pray. Amen.
