When day came, he called his disciples and chose from them twelve, whom he named Apostles:
Lk.6:13
Jesus didn't appoint the perfect, he chose from those who were available.
When I run over the names of the apostles I am both astounded and encouraged. They are such a ragtag collection of humanity, exhibiting all the sins and weaknesses that I possess. So what recommended them? Their availability.
I don't need to be perfect to serve Jesus. Just available. What a relief.
Here I am Lord, I've come to do your will.
Saints Simon and Jude, please pray for me
