CALLED OR CHOSEN?

"The Kingdom of Heaven can be illustrated by the story of a king who prepared a great wedding feast for his son. When the banquet was ready, he sent his servants to notify those who were invited. But they all refused to come! And he said to his servants, the wedding feast is ready, and the guest I invited aren't worthy of honor. Now go out to the street corners and invite everyone you see. So the servants brought in everyone they could find, good and bad alike....But when the king came in to meet the guest, he noticed a man who wasn't wearing the proper clothes for a wedding." (Mt. 22:1-14,NLT) This guy had to be thrown out into the dark. Even though he knew he had been CALLED, he was not CHOSEN; because he was in a wrong outfit. "For many are CALLED but few are CHOSEN." As a child of God, you've been called for a purpose, but you must be available to be chosen! In the potter's house are many vessels. But the one that will set itself apart would be fit for the master's use. AB@TWDevotional
