Ooh, Pick Me

Let's go back in time when kids spent their summers outdoors

. No, I'm not talking about on some camp ground in the wilderness. I'm talking about outside riding bikes, playing Double Dutch, roller skating, tossing around the football or building go-carts.

How about those basketball games when two guys would pick who would play on their team. Fortunately for me I was a good basketball player and if I wasn't picking the team, I was always picked early. But what about those kids who couldn't play? You know the ones who were always picked last and I do mean ALWAYS picked last.

You know at some point, those guys didn't mind because they were happy just to be playing with the other fellas. They were glad someone chose them to be on their team.

Whose team are you playing for right now? Who picked you?

John 15:16 says You did not choose Me, but I chose you and appointed you that you should go and bear fruit, and that your fruit should remain, that whatever you ask the Father in My name He may give you.

Jesus said that He chose YOU and appointed YOU. That's an awesome feeling to know that the One who conquered death and has an undefeated record chose you to be on His team.

Not only were you chosen, but you should bear fruit. You're not on the team to sit on the bench or to carry the towels or to cheer on the other players. You should bear fruit and your fruit should remain which means you have something of value to offer. You are playing with everyone else and you're a contributor to the team and what you have to offer is exceptional.

So I asked you, have you accepted the invitation to be on Jesus' team? If not, there is only one other solution and that's to be on the losing team and that lose will cost you your life.

There is only one championship team. Will you be in the team picture?

Be Encouraged and Have a Great Day!

Ooh, Pick Me
