'Living out a life of faith' is the essence of MaxLucado's book 'Out Live Your Life'.This is also an inspiration to make a difference in the world we live in.Pain is a universal phenomenon.Max paints a picture of human suffering with hues of pain from different continents across the globe.The picture brightens as faith-filled believers reach out and act transforming lives.
What is the difference between turning a blind eye and reaching out with a compassionate heart toward a soul in pain?Is it just a cheerful or anguished countenance? or do our little deeds of kindness help the troubled soul determine their eternal destiny?The book sure makes you think.
How can you and I make a difference?Numerous examples from the book of Acts such as Paul,Peter,Stephen and many others who had impacted the world....many others from our century who made a subtle difference in their own way...provide a classic example for us all to follow.
Living in social-network connected world of Isolation,where a ocean of wealth separates the rich from the poor,people locked up in their own shells of selfishness and prejudice drenched in hypocrisy,in a world racing at a roller-coaster pace with almost no time to breathe...much less to reflect upon the adorable creator...
Is there anyone out there
to show the love of Christ,
shed the light of His truth,
share His message of hope,
extend a helping hand,
and offer a word of encouragement to a soul battling depression,poverty,rejection,disease?
Could it be you and I?we might not have to really fly across continents to reach the needy...someone just around the corner might need us.Turn around,open up your eyes and heart,pray and act!!
Is Christ living in you?Let Him live through you...
This book is a wonderful read..
