God sends the Holy Spirit to choose us through conviction of sin, which causes us to acknowledge our need of a savior:

[John 16:7] Nevertheless I tell you the truth; It is expedient for you that I go away: for if I go not away, the Comforter will not come unto you; but if I depart, I will send him unto you.
