Jesus called Peter, his first disciple, to leave behind his job as a successful fisherman. Peter’s excuse was: I am a sinful man. Yet Peter left his boat and his nets and followed Jesus to catch men rather than fish. God called Isaiah in the temple. Isaiah’s excuse was: I am a man of unclean lips. Yet an angel purified him and Isaiah then enthusiastically said: Send me! On the road to Damascus, Jesus called Saul whose excuse was: I am unfit because I persecuted the Church. Yet he became Paul, the apostle to the Gentiles. God disregarded every one of those excuses, because he had a plan and each man had a part in it. God has a place for us in his plan, too. Isn’t it about time to we stopped making excuses?
