Not one of us chose God

Not one of us chose God . He chose us. I realize that my very thought to come to the Lord was given to me by the Lord my action of coming to the Lord was the work of His spirit drawling me to Him.my salvation is all a work of His spirit nothing of myself nothing of my efforts abilities or any of my deeds nor of my own strength or wisdom but all through faith by His Grace leaving me nothing of self... to boast about. for His purpose for His Glory He chose me and has empowered me by His spirit to walk with Him seek Him follow Him and obey Him. for His purpose for His Glory I've been chosen called and ordained that I should Go and bring forth fruit and that my fruit should remain . how is this fruit produced and how does it remain ? by the continuing work of His Holy Spirit. being confident of this very thing, that He which hath begun a good work in me He will perform it until the day of Jesus Christ. am I perfect ? no ! of course at times I fall short and that is when I need to be renewed in the spirit of my mind confess and repent and prayerfully follow instruction casting down
imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ. am I perfect ? no ! Not as though I had already attained, either were already perfect: but I follow after, if that I may apprehend that for which also I am apprehended of Christ Jesus. Brethren, I count not myself to have apprehended: but this one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before, I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.
John 15:16 Ye have not chosen Me, but I have chosen you, and ordained you, that ye should go and bring forth fruit, and that your fruit should remain: that whatsoever ye shall ask of the Father in My Name, He may give it you.

Philippians 1:6 being confident of this very thing, that He which hath begun a good work in you will perform it until the day of Jesus Christ.
