I have been reading a book I found in one of my closets from Max Lucado called, In The Eye of The Storm; A Day In The Life Of Jesus.
He made a list of how we should live our life. It’s a pretty good list!
- Love God more than you fear hell.
- Once a week, let a child take you on a walk.
- Make major decisions in a cemetery.
- When no one is watching, live as if someone is.
- Succeed at home first.
- Don’t spend tomorrow’s money today.
- Pray twice as much as you fret.
- Listen twice as much as you speak.
- Only harbor a grudge when God does.
- Never outgrow your love of sunsets.
- Treat people like angels; you will meet some and help make some.
- ‘Tis wiser to err on the side of generosity than on the side of scrutiny.
- God has forgiven you; you’d be wise to do the same.
- When you can’t trace God’s hand, trust his heart.
- Toot your own horn and the notes will be flat.
- Don’t feel guilty for God’s goodness.
- The book of life is lived in chapters, so know your page number.
- Never let the important be the victim of the trivial.
- Live your liturgy.
This is the day the Lord has made. We will rejoice and be glad in it. Psalm 118:24
I’m thankful God can use us with all our flaws and imperfections. I don’t know what you’re going through today but know that God loves you and His grace is all you need!

I do really well on most of these points, but your blog encourages me to spend tomorrow’s money today!!! Help!!! I got a Nordstrom card this time! I usually pay everything off-I’m going to have to stop looking at all of your cute clothes!:)
I love Max Lucado! I am so fortunate to live outside of San Antinio & be able to attend his church. He is no longer the senior pastor, but he does preach occasionally. His sermons are like a “wonderful hug”.
