Be UsableExemplo

Consecrate every firstborn male, Leviticus requires, along with a sacrificial offering of a lamb and young pigeon or turtledove. But, if you could not afford a lamb, two young pigeons or two turtledoves were acceptable instead. Mary's offering reveals that she and Joseph were not wealthy, yet the Lord chose them to be the earthly parents of His only begotten Son.

The Lord doesn't choose the way man chooses. Man looks outward, but God looks on the heart (1 Samuel 16:7).

Mary and Joseph were chosen when they were without fame, position, and money. God entrusted the most precious gift He had to a couple who would have indeed overlooked if men had been searching.

God isn't looking for ability, but rather availability. D. L. Moody once heard a preacher say, 'The world has never seen what God can do with one man who is totally yielded to Him.' In response, D. L. said, 'By the grace of God, I'll be that man.' This uneducated man went on to shake three continents for God.

God will choose you too if you'll make yourself available to Him (1 Cor. 1:26-28), and let yes be your first response next time God calls.
