“You Did Not Choose Me”
📖 “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)
You didn’t stumble into faith.
You weren’t overlooked or randomly invited.
You were chosen—by the Son of God.
And not just chosen to believe, but appointed to bear fruit—lasting, eternal fruit.
In a world that constantly questions your worth, Jesus gives you a calling:
Walk with Me. Abide in Me. Reflect Me.
This isn’t about striving—it’s about surrender.
Jesus picked you for a purpose.
He intends to make your life fruitful—not flashy, not fake, but full of the kind of fruit that brings glory to the Father.
Even your unseen faithfulness matters.
Even the small steps of obedience count.
Because He chose you.
Reflection Questions:
- Do you see your life as chosen and appointed by Jesus?
- What kind of fruit is being cultivated in your daily walk?
Prayer:
Lord Jesus, thank You for choosing me. Help me walk in the purpose You’ve given, bearing fruit that glorifies You. Keep me rooted in You today. 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.
