Essay on Michael Faraday (part 2)

Michael's sister, Elizabeth, found him a job with a book-binder. There he could read books. He learned many things but became especially interested in the science of chemistry and electricity. By paying close attention to those around him, he also learned how to pronounce the letter "r".  
When Michael was 21 he attended a series of lectures by Sir Humphrey Davy, one of the most well known scientists of his day. So Michael quit his job at the book-binder's and went to work for Davy as a lab assistant. Many years later on his death bed, Sir Humphrey Davy said,"My greatest discovery was Michael Faraday. 
No matter how famous he became, Michael Faraday never became prideful. It is no wonder that Albert Eienstine ranked him beside Galelao and Newton. God greatly used Michael Faraday and I think theses are the two main reasons why He did: Michael Faraday had an unwavering faith in God, and he had a determination to overcome obstacles.
