The surpassing grace of God is seen very clearly, in that He has Sought Out His chosen people.
Glory be to infinite love and unconquerable grace-we were sought out!
No gloom could hide us, no filthiness could conceal us!
We were sought out, found and brought home.
The lives of some of God's people, if they could be written, would fill us with holy astonishment.
Marvelous and wondrous are the ways that God uses to find His own people.
Blessed be His name, He never relinquishes the search, until His chosen ones are effectually sought out and brought home.
Christians are not a people sought today-and cast away tomorrow.
Almightiness and wisdom combined, will make no failures.
They shall be called "Sought out!"
That any should be sought out is matchless grace-but that we should be sought out, is grace beyond degree!
We can find no reason for it, but God's own sovereign love!
We lift up our heart in astonishment, and praise the Lord that we wear the name of "Sought out!"
Luke 15:6 And when he cometh home, he calleth together his friends and neighbours, saying unto them, Rejoice with me; for I have found my sheep which was lost.
Jesus sought me when a stranger, Wandering from the fold of God;
He, to rescue me from danger, Interposed His precious blood!
~Charles Spurgeon~
