Want to snatch a day from the manacles of boredom? Do overgenerous deeds, acts beyond reimbursement. Kindness without compensation. Do a deed for which you cannot be repaid.

More quotes by Max Lucado
God wants no one to leave our presence empty handed.
Max Lucado
There is a rawness and a wonder to life. Pursue it. Hunt for it. Sell out to get it. Don't listen to the whines of those who have settled for a second-rate life and want you to do the same so they won't feel guilty. Your goal is not to live long it's to live.
Max Lucado
God does uncommon things through common people in common places.
Max Lucado
Since our greatest need was forgiveness, God sent us a Savior. He became like us, so we could become like Him.
Max Lucado
It's important to preach like there's a broken heart on every pew. That's always been a phrase that stuck with me. Not everybody is having a tough time, but you can bet your buck that there's a good tenth of your church that's going through a hard season. There really is a broken heart on every pew.
Max Lucado
The ultimate solution to POVERTY is found in the COMPASSION of God's people.

Relationships don't thrive because the guilty are punished but because the innocent are merciful.

Grace is God as heart surgeon, cracking open your chest, removing your heart - poisoned as it is with pride and pain - and replacing it with his own.
Max Lucado
You are saved, not because of what you do, but because of what Christ did. And you are special, not because of what you do, but because of whose you are. And you are his. And because we are his, let's forget the shortcuts and stay on the main road. He knows the way. He drew the map. He knows the way home.
Max Lucado
There's no person God cannot reach.
Max Lucado
I think it's noteworthy that the Almighty didn't act high and mighty. The Holy One wasn't holier-than-thou. The One who knew it all wasn't a know-it-all. The One who made the stars didn't keep his head in them. The One who owns all the stuff of earth never strutted it.
Max Lucado
Find joy in the ordinary.
Max Lucado
I don't know how to answer the problem of deep pain without a deep hope in eternity.
Max Lucado
Anger is the noise of the soul the unseen irritant of the heart the relentless invader of silence.
Max Lucado
What you do for a tree, God does for you.
Max Lucado
As long as you are stationary, no one will complain. Dogs don't bark at parked cars.
Max Lucado
I remember enjoying writing those, theres two clues of a gift: you enjoy doing it and people enjoy you doing it.
Max Lucado
Forgiveness doesn't diminish justice it just entrusts it to God. He guarantees the right retribution.
Max Lucado
Sometimes when you read the Bible, you find yourself asking, How does this book know that about me? How does it know that about our world - especially when it was written so long ago?
Max Lucado
Refusing to forgive is like ingesting a lethal dose of poison and hoping it kills my enemy.
