“Chosen for a Purpose”
📖 “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…”
—John 15:16a (NKJV)
Have you ever reminded your children:
“You are part of this family—on purpose and for a reason”?
Jesus says something similar to those who follow Him:
“I chose you.”
Not by accident. Not as a backup plan. But with intention—and for a purpose.
Every member of the family—mother and child—has been chosen to live in a way that brings lasting fruit.
That means love that lasts. Kindness that goes deep.
Truth that doesn’t change.
And obedience that flows from knowing we are loved.
This is the kind of home that glorifies God: not one that’s perfect, but one that remembers, “We’ve been chosen.”
Family Reflection:
- What does it mean to our family that Jesus chose us?
- How can we bear fruit that lasts—in our words, choices, and attitudes?
Prayer:
Lord Jesus, thank You for choosing us and giving our family purpose. Help us live in a way that produces lasting fruit—together and for Your glory. Amen.

I’m a follower of Christ, learning daily to walk the narrow path laid out in His Word. Through Rooted & Raised: Anchoring Women & Children in Christ, I simply seek to point others back to Scripture, tested by the Holy Spirit, lived out in faith, and anchored in truth.
● This space isn’t about lofty theology or grand platforms. It’s about humble obedience, Kingdom living, and helping others, especially women and families, rediscover the kind of faith that bears fruit, costs something, and reflects the love of Christ. My heart is to encourage others as I learn, grow, and surrender alongside them.
