Meet the Apostles: Matthias by ric Gustafson
After the death of Judas Iscariot, the Apostles had to select someone to replace him. There were strict guidelines for the selection process. The candidate had to be a Jesus follower from the early days of Jesus's ministry. The Apostles wanted someone who had been with Jesus day in and day out. They wanted someone who had been a witness as far as Jesus's resurrection and ascension. Only two men fit the requirements. A man named Justus and a man named Matthias. Matthias was chosen.
We never know when we will be chosen for an important spiritual task.
