Another Plan

Listen to Today's Devotion My wife and I spent five years on a missionary team in Brazil. Our first two years felt fruitless and futile. More often than not I went home frustrated. So we asked God for another plan. We prayed and read the Epistles. We especially focused on Galatians. When I compared our gospel message with Paul’s, I saw a difference. His was high-octane good news. Mine was soured legalism. So, as a team, we resolved to focus on the gospel. I did my best to proclaim forgiveness of sins and resurrection from the dead. We saw an immediate change. We baptized forty people in twelve months. Quite a few for a church of sixty members! God wasn’t finished with us yet. We just needed to put God’s plan in place. Why don’t you ask God for his plan? Read more God Is with You Every Day For more inspirational messages please visit Max Lucado.

Listen to Today's Devotion

My wife and I spent five years on a missionary team in Brazil. Our first two years felt fruitless and futile. More often than not I went home frustrated. So we asked God for another plan.

We prayed and read the Epistles. We especially focused on Galatians. When I compared our gospel message with Paul’s, I saw a difference. His was high-octane good news. Mine was soured legalism. So, as a team, we resolved to focus on the gospel. I did my best to proclaim forgiveness of sins and resurrection from the dead.

We saw an immediate change. We baptized forty people in twelve months. Quite a few for a church of sixty members! God wasn’t finished with us yet. We just needed to put God’s plan in place. Why don’t you ask God for his plan?
