Grace for your spirit
Now as they observed the confidence of Peter and John and understood that they were uneducated and untrained men, they were amazed, and began to recognize them as having been with Jesus. Acts 4:13
Jesus did not select His apostles from the "upper crust" of society, or from the halls of education. He chose fisherman and tax collectors, who would exhibit a humble spirit like Himself. He chose men who could humble themselves until exalted by the Master. Those who heard the apostles preach knew they didn't have the credentials or the background, but their power of wisdom and knowledge could not be denied. The masses realized that they must have been with Jesus. Their powerful teaching led people to Jesus, just like He wanted. We shouldn't try to escape service and ministry due to our ignorance and lack of training. We are just the people Jesus is looking for today.
The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit
Philippians 4:23
