We Wear Jesus

By Max Lucado

 

“All of you who were baptized into Christ have clothed yourselves with Christ.” Galatians 3:27, NIV

We wear Jesus. And those who don’t believe in Jesus note that we do. They make decisions about Christ by watching us. When we are kind, they assume Christ is kind. When we are gracious, they assume Christ is gracious. But if we are brash, what will people think about our King? When we are dishonest, what assumptions will an observer make about our Master? . . Courteous conduct honors Christ.

We Are His

By Max Lucado

 

“Thank you for your love, thank you for your faithfulness.” Psalm 138:2, The Message

We give more applause to a brawny ball-carrier than we do to the God who made us. We sing more songs to the moon than to the Christ who saved us . . .

Though we may not act like our Father, there is no greater truth than this: We are his. Unalterably. He loves us. Undyingly.

Blessed am I

Kristyl treated all the grandbabies, Marla and I to her house for lunch on Tuesday. Afterwards all of us went to see Marmaduke.......Cael and Marla ended up at Walmart!

The girls came home with me and we had a sleepover complete with painting a landscape in our Art Class in Nana's studio..,.,such fun!

I am recuperating this morning.......old age you know.

The Believer’s Heart

By Max Lucado

 

“Blessed are the meek, for they will inherit the earth.” Matthew 5:5 NIV

Matthew 5 is a step-by-step description of how God rebuilds the believer’s heart.
The first step is to ask for help to become “poor in spirit” and admit our need for a Savior.
The next step is sorrow. Those who mourn are those who know they are wrong and say they are sorry.
The next step is one of renewal: “Blessed are the meek. . .” Realization of weakness leads to the source of strength–God.
