Jesus Calls

I was reading Matthew 4:18-22 this morning.  It's the account of Jesus calling the first disciples.  It's interesting that Jesus didn't put an ad in the paper or send out a survey to anticipate who might be his disciples.  Jesus called them.  He said, "Follow me, and I will make you fish for people."  There was something about his calling that could not be resisted.  We like to think we have a choice when it comes to responding to God's call but I'm not so sure that very often the choice has already been made.  We just follow in obedience to God's calling.
