There was nothing special about the apostles. They were common men with common deficiencies and common problems. So, why did Jesus call them? Because He wanted to.
He could have chosen a thousand ways to get His work done on earth—like using angels or doing it Himself or creating a special race of people.
Wait! That’s what He did. He saved us out of our sins and created us as a special race to do His will.
Ephesians 2:10 For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them.
Jesus calls every person He saves into His service. He makes us new creatures.
2 Corinthians 5:17 Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.
He gives us gifts to use in the body of Christ, 1 Cor. 12:7-26.
I encourage you to seek Him to find your gift and get busy for Jesus.
