Could you reach out to Him today? And when you've taken your last breath, you'll meet Him at last. http://hutchcraft.com/a-word-with-you/your-personal-power/men-s-work-women-s-work-6288 2011-03-11T16:17:27-05:00 You demonstrate your dignity, not by how many people do things for you, but how many people you do things for. That's manhood! Jesus, the ultimate model of manhood - a muscular carpenter - can be a foot washer. The mighty Son of God can be a servant. That's the kind of real man that a woman loves to love. http://hutchcraft.com/a-word-with-you/your-personal-power/the-need-to-need-what-you-know-6305 2011-03-11T16:05:32-05:00 Get out on a limb where you're taking some risks for your Lord serving Him so you get beyond yourself; because you'll meet Him there in a way you can't meet Him anywhere else because now, you need to need what you know. http://hutchcraft.com/a-word-with-you/your-personal-power/jesus-where-you-live-6234 2010-12-02T10:18:55-05:00 When you're all wrapped up in yourself and your needs, your hands will always be full of your stuff.

In so many lives you know, Christ has no hands but your hands. http://hutchcraft.com/a-word-with-you/your-mission/the-greatest-opportunities-of-your-life-6230 2010-11-30T09:37:51-05:00 It's time to do whatever it takes to bring in the people that Jesus died to rescue because Jesus keeps doing things to get them ready for Him. He's trusting you to go after the harvest, not sleep through it. The opportunities to help people be in heaven with you are the greatest opportunities of your life. It's time to drop everything and run to the harvest. http://ivpress.com/cgi-ivpress/book.pl/code=3003 2010-11-09T21:14:30-05:00 What would it be like to be discipled by Jesus himself? What would he teach you about relationships, priorities, wealth and his coming kingdom? What would you learn from his actions?
