The whole time
“So then, someone must join us as a witness to the resurrection of the Lord Jesus. He must be one of the men who were in our group during the whole time that the Lord Jesus travelled about with us, beginning from the time John preached his message of baptism until the day Jesus was taken up from us to heaven.”
So they proposed two men: Joseph, who was called Barsabbas (also known as Justus), and Matthias.
(Acts 1.21-23 GNB)
Both Barsabbas and Matthias were there with the twelve and Jesus the whole time, although their names are not mentioned explicitly up until this point. Unlike some disciples who left Jesus, these two kept on.
It is not important to be famous. It is important to be faithful to Jesus.
And when the opportunity calls, be it big or small, serve.
Lord
please help me be faithful to Jesus
