Outlive Your Life by Max Lucado
Max Lucado challenges his readers to outlive their lives by seeing those around them who are different and who are in need. To live a life that God has called all Christians to live: by prayer and believing in the power of prayer, to not worry or expect acknowledgement for doing good, and most importantly see others in need as if they are Jesus! We all have different callings on our lives but it’s about doing what we can to reach out to those in need inside of our calling. The challenge in this book can seem a bit overwhelming but through prayer and time in God’s word it’s all about seeking him and finding our own way to outlive our lives. Trusting Him with what He has for us and where He wants to go outlive our lives.
The message of this book was a surprise to me, even after reading the title I really did not know what it was going to be about. I often think that ways to give and outlive my own life are not possible because of the stage of life I am in, but that is not true after reading this book. It’s now my prayer that God will shown when, where and how he wants me to outlive my life, to see others how He sees them.
