Making Somebodies of Nobodies

I’ll call nobodies and make them somebodies; I’ll call the unloved and make them beloved. Rom 9.25 Paul explains in Rom 9.25 that God will make somebodies of nobodies. He is talking about us there. We were nobodies—God was under no obligation to draw us to faith; he is the potter; we are the clay—however, God delights in taking a nobody and making him a somebody. This is a mystery and Paul keeps it a mystery. He does not explain why God does what he does, only that he does what he does. It is at this point that we must rest our seeking because God does not feel it necessary to explain his choice to us. His choice is something we rest in, not something we question. I'm grateful and happy that God took a nobody like me and made me his child; a somebody.
