1 Peter 2:9-10
"But you are a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, GOD's own people that you may declare the wonderful deeds of HIM who called you out of darkness into his marvelous light. Once you were no people but now you are GOD's people; once you had not received mercy but now you have received mercy." (emphasis mine)

I just heard a sermon on this! So lovely to meditate on.
i hadn't thought of the 'that' before. yes, we're chosen, and that makes me all warm and fuzzy, but looking at the why, and just what we were chosen for, is really important.
once we were no people, now we are GOD's people. how can we Not want to declare that?
I know! Isn't our God incredible!?!?!?
