Because Jesus Christ lives, because God raised Him from the dead, we know that His sacrifice as the perfect, sinless Lamb of God was sufficient as the atonement for our debt of sin, as the redemption for our freedom, as the reconciliation in our relationship with our heavenly Father.
18 You must know (recognize) that you were redeemed (ransomed) from the useless (fruitless) way of living inherited by tradition from [your] forefathers, not with corruptible things [such as] silver and gold,19 But [you were purchased] with the precious blood of Christ (the Messiah), like that of a [sacrificial] lamb without blemish or spot. 1 Peter 1:17-19 Amplified Bible, Classic Edition
Hallelujah! Our iniquities are forgiven, our diseases are healed, our life is redeemed from the pit. (see Psalm 103)

The words 'I Am Chosen' 'I Am A Child of God' so much more the meaning as we celebrate Easter and all that Jesus did for us. What a beautiful photo to go with your Scripture; Because He Lives we can all face tomorrow and more. :)
