(This message shows that God chooses people according to his own purposes; 12 he calls people, but not according to their good or bad works.) She was told, “Your older son will serve your younger son.”

God understands what I cannot imagine. God selects people for situations for His purpose. That also means that what I am doing is probably what God has selected me to do and to be. I will try to fit in God’s purpose and not mess it up too much. And I am so pathetic that I don’t really know what that is or how to do it.
God, please guide me.
