Got It Covered

How incredible that our Heavenly Father is in charge of our salvation! I didn't start it, I can't finish it - I must depend wholly and completely upon the Author and Finisher. And how comforting a thought that is!

In 2 Samuel 23, an elderly King David bursts forth in praise to God:

Is not my house right with God?
Has He not made with me an everlasting covenant,
arranged and secured in every part?
Will He not bring to fruition my salvation
and grant me my every desire? (verse 5)

Why did the Lord choose me? I can't imagine why; it must be all of grace! He is incredible and I can't begin to form the words that would be anywhere near fitting to describe the feeling of joy that this knowledge brings.
