Why God chooses to use some individuals, and seemingly ignores those with far greater talents, is always something which defies human logic. The fact is that God often uses those who have little to recommend them when it comes to entitlement through education, family connections, and intelligence. Yet the biographies of those who have made a mark for God indicate that they share three common traits: 1) They immediately and without hesitation responded to the call of God in their lives. 2) Their simple faith in God was marked by complete obedience, and 3) What they had, they gave to the Lord completely and without reservation.
