Out Live Your Life by Max Lucado


Out Live Your Life
By Max Lucado
I was drawn to read the book Out Live Your Life by Max Lucado because that is what I want to do and intend to do with my own life. I want to live my life in a way that will leave a legacy of love and Christian faith that others may see, understand and desire to do the same. To “Pay it forward” and out live their lives as well.
In this book Max Lucado reaches into the Word of God to show us who we are in Christ. Why we have been created and how God has equipped us to do what we have been created for. In God’s word’s we will learn how to be “a doer of the Word and not just a hearer.”
Max explains how very “individual” we are. We are created in God’s image yet we are unique and there is none like us. We have been given a life. We did not ask for one but we have it, a first day, a last day, and any number of days in between. Our days are accelerated and as each one goes by it becomes one of the good old days, a part of our past. And if we are not careful our shot at life will pass us by.
Reading this book will change your life if you let it. You will not live and die and never ask why, rather you will grab each moment and not let your fleeting vapor of life pass by without having left something behind for others to “pay it forward.”
Max shows us that God wants us to be His hands and His feet, loving and caring for His people with His heart. He compares stories in the bible with people of today and yesterday and he tells how they out lived their lives by doing for others things that change the world, one obedient heart at a time.
If you let this book change your life, you will then be able to reach out and change the world as you “Out Live Your Life.”
