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.

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
