Hence St.
Paul writes: "For ye see your calling, brethren, how that not many wise men after the flesh, not many mighty, not many noble, are called; but God hath chosen the foolish things of the world to confound the wise; and God hath chosen the weak things of the world to confound the things which are mighty; and base things of the world, and things which are despised, hath God chosen, yea, and things which are not, to bring to nought things that are; that no flesh should glory in his presence" .-- 1 Corinthians 1:26-29.
[477]The thought here is that ultimately no creature will ever be standing in Jehovah's presence boasting of what he did.

But all those who compose the church will realize that all they have came to them as a gracious gift from Jehovah.

To those who have really had the desire to know and serve the Lord the call has been and is beautiful indeed.

Such have been thrilled with the gracious words of Jehovah spoken through his prophet, inviting them to become members of the royal family of heaven.
The Psalmist wrote: "Hearken, O daughter, and consider, and incline thine ear; forget also thine own people, and thy father's house; so shall the king greatly desire thy beauty; for he is thy Lord, and worship thou him" .-- Psalm 45:10,11.
[478]As Jesus is the Son of God, so the church, the bride of Christ, is the daughter of God.

Hence the Psalmist speaks to her here, inviting those who are to become the daughter to forget their own people and their earthly father's house and earnestly and willingly follow in the Master's footsteps.
