Andrew was one of the twelve apostles. However, before he became an apostle, he was a disciple of Jesus. Before he was a disciple of Jesus, he was a disciple of John.
In the first chapter of the book of John, we are told that John told Andrew that Jesus was the Lamb of God. Jesus then invited Andrew to spend the day with him. After doing so, Andrews was convinced that Jesus was the Messiah. He went, found his brother and excitedly told him that the Messiah had been found. Andrew, then, brought Simon and introduced him to Jesus. Simon became the great preacher, Peter. Andrew may not have been a great public speaker, but he helped convert a relative who was.
You may have heard the account of when Jesus fed over 5,000 people with just a few fishes and loaves of bread. All of these people had followed Jesus to a place away from any town. All became hungry. The fish and bread belonged to a small boy. This boy gave his food so that many could eat through the miracle of Jesus. It was Andrew who brought the boy to Jesus. Evidently, Andrew had met this boy earlier and knew that he had this food. Andrew made this boy famous even though we do not know his name. The important thing about the account is the marvelous miracle Jesus performed. Yet, we also see that Andrew was observant and was able to use resources that were available. We also learn that no matter how small a person may be, there is always something he can offer to help others believe in Jesus.
In John 12, we read about some Greeks who were in Jerusalem for the Passover. They approached Philip, telling him they would like to see Jesus. Philip went to Andrew. Then, the two of them took the Greeks to Jesus. Andrew was involved in bringing these foreigners to Jesus.
Are you involved in bringing others to Jesus? Are you involved in showing others that they can do something to spread the Gospel? Are you an Andrew? Study your Bible. Obey it, and if any of this is hard to understand, ask an adult to help you.
