Who was called to do what?

Have you ever read the bible? If you have, one thing you may notice is that God chooses a lot of people to serve him, and many of them are very unlikely choices by man's standards. Abraham was to be the father of a nation, but he was older than dirt and kidless. David was chosen to be a great warrior and a king, yet he wasn't tall enough to drive his own bumper car (probably did qualify to ride, I never understood that double standard). Saul of Tarsus was a hater, and basically became the ultimate advocate of Christians in teaching and writing with a blinding light and a name refresh. Even Jesus, the King of Kings, spent most of his youth hanging out in the carpenter shop.

I often wonder how many of us have felt a calling from God. If we have, do we answer it? We live in the age of caller ID, so it becomes too easy to screen the calls (even from God). As I have been eluding to, I'm hearing the call from God, and I'm intending to answer it. If one is willing to answer, its amazing who God will send your way to assist. I felt this tonight, as someone may have entered my life to change it forever. Don't you love self-censorship? Stayed tuned :)
