The Guy With The Donkey - Sue Johnson - 16-03-2005
THE GUY WITH THE DONKEY -----
by Max Lucado
When we all get home I know what I want to do. There's someone I want
to get to know. I want to meet the guy with the donkey.
I don't know his name or what he looks like. I only know one thing:
what he gave. He gave a donkey to Jesus on the Sunday he entered
Jerusalem.
“Go to the town you can see there. When you enter it, you will quickly
find a donkey tied there with its colt. Untie them and bring them to
me. If anyone asks you why you are taking the donkeys, say that the
Master needs them, and he will send them at once.†(Matthew 21:3)
When we all get to heaven I want to visit this fellow. I have several
questions for him.
Did you know? Did you have any idea that your generosity would be used
for such a noble purpose? Did it ever occur to you that God was going
to ride your donkey? Were you aware that all four gospel writers would
tell your story? Did it ever cross your mind that a couple of
millenniums later, a curious preacher in South Texas would be pondering
your plight late at night?
Maybe you have those questions, too. All of us have a donkey. You and I
each have something in our lives, which, if given back to God, could,
like the donkey, move Jesus and his story further down the road.
