Max Lucado Devotional 1st January 2024: One Version of You
READ TODAY’S DAILY DEVOTIONAL FOR 1 JANUARY 2024 BY MAX LUCADO
TODAY’S DEVOTIONAL MESSAGE: Da Vinci painted one Mona Lisa. Beethoven composed one 5th Symphony. And God made one version of you!
God custom designed you for a one-of-a-kind assignment, “to each according to each one’s unique ability” (Matthew 25:15). “The Spirit has given each of us a special way of serving others” (1 Corinthians 12:7 CEV). Did the apostle Paul say, “The Spirit has given some of us…” or “a few of us…”? No! “The Spirit has given each of us a special way of serving others.”
You don’t have to do everything. You’re not God’s solution to society, you are a solution in society. Don’t worry about the skills you don’t have. Don’t covet strength others do have. Just extract your uniqueness to God’s glory.
ABOUT THE AUTHOR OF THIS DEVOTIONAL: Max Lucado is a pastor, speaker, and best-selling author who, in his own words, “writes books for people who don’t read books.” He serves the people of Oak Hills Church in San Antonio, Texas, and his message is for the hurting, the guilty, the lonely, and the discouraged: God loves you; let him.
As a writer, Max is known for combining poetic storytelling and homespun humor with the heart of a pastor. All of his trade books began as sermon series at Oak Hills Church, and his sermons all begin with Max asking himself this question: “What can I say on Sunday that will still matter on Monday?” He’s been dubbed “America’s Pastor” by Christianity Today, and “The Best Preacher in America” by Reader’s Digest.
