Why Did He Call You?

So the other day I was driving down the road in my truck and ask God a question I have asked several times before. It was kind of a rhetorical question, but I got an answer anyway. The question was why did you call me, with all the great men of God why me? The answer was basically He didn't call me to preach, or to any of the ministries He allows me to be a part of... He created me for those purposes. He calls me to fulfill my purpose. God has created us all for a purpose and sometimes we run from God's calling to fulfill that purpose. So that being the case, your qualification and abilities are not based on how good you are at something, but at how well you yield to His calling to fulfill what He created you for.
I heard someone tonight talking about how they feel like sometimes if one person doesn't do what God calls them to, God will call someone else to do that work. And I thought about it for a while, I don't believe God calls anyone as a second choice. I believe God created each us for His plan and He will work it out in us to the degree that we yield to His calling.
