Jesus? A Mistake?
“Is there any good reason to suppose that Jesus would make a mistake with our lives?”
Dennis Kinlaw asks that in his book, This Day with The Master.
A bit before that he tells about a conversation with a soldier during World War II.
The soldier had asked him, “How can I give my life to Christ if I already have my own plans for it?”
Kinlaw: “I had spent most of life as a pastor dealing with people who felt there was no contradiction between saying, ‘I will give my life to Christ,’ and ‘I know what I’m going to do with my life.’ That man sensed the contradiction.”
Been there.
Maybe you have, too.
Find myself there again and again.
Maybe you do, too.
Let’s listen again to that question, and let’s answer it again — “Is there any good reason to suppose that Jesus would make a mistake with our lives?”
