“And He ordained twelve, that they should be with Him, and that He might send them forth to preach†(Mark 3:14).
Mark 3:16-19 lists the names of the twelve disciples. These are names of ordinary people who were called out to do extraordinary work for God. They were from different walks of life but were willing to surrender all for the cause of Christ. Their willingness to trust, obey, and follow God made them teachable. He was able to empower them to do great things in spreading the gospel.
As followers of God today, we must have that same desire to sit at the feet of Jesus and allow Him to impart His Will to us. God doesn’t look at our capability but at our availability. If He calls you out to do a special work for Him, be willing to do as the twelve disciples—forsake all and follow Him.
