After your talk with us last night about evangelism I thought I would share Max Lucado's devotion for today entitled "just be normal. 

Blessings.

MaxLucado.com Weekday Email Israel Tour April 2014      Just Be Normal  Today's MP3 You don't have to lower your standards.  Or saddle a high horse.  Just be nice.  Normal and nice.  Discipleship is sometimes defined by being normal!  You don't have to be weird to follow Jesus.  You don't have to stop liking your friends to follow Him.  Just the opposite.  A few introductions would be nice.  Do you know how to grill a steak? A woman in a small Arkansas community was a single mom with a frail baby. Her neighbor would stop by every few days and keep the child so she could do her shopping.  After some weeks her neighbor shared more than time; she shared her faith, and the woman followed Christ. The friends of the young mother objected.  "Do you know what those people teach?" they contested.  "Here is what I know," she told them.  "They held my baby." I think Jesus likes that kind of answer, don't you? from Next Door Savior    05.29.13.mp3 UpWords Partners help make these emails & more available for free at MaxLucado.com.

MaxLucado.com Weekday Email Untying Knots  Today's MP3 Most of us had a hard time learning to tie our shoes. And, oh the advice.  Everyone had a different approach.  Can't anyone agree?  On only one thing.  You need to know how! My friend Roy used to sit on a park bench each morning. One day he noticed a little fellow struggling to board the bus. He was leaning down, frantically trying to disentangle a knotted shoestring.  He grew more anxious by the moment—eyes darting back and forth between the shoe and the ride.  All of a sudden the door closed.  The boy fell back and sighed. That's when he saw Roy.  With tear-filled eyes he asked, "Do you untie knots?" Jesus loves that request. Life gets tangled.  People mess up. You never outgrow the urge to look up and say, "Help!" Look who shows up. Jesus, our next door Savior. "Do you untie knots?"  He answers emphatically, "Yes!" from Next Door Savior    05.27.13.mp3 UpWords Partners help make these emails & more available for free at MaxLucado.com.
