You Can Be Everything God Wants You To Be

This is Max Lucado at his most inspirational for young people. “Da Vinci painted one Mona Lisa. Beethoven composed one Fifth Symphony. And God made one version of you.”

This is a great book for anyone who wondered if God has a purpose for them, and what their purpose in life is. Max is a great story teller who brings us many short anecdotes to illuminate the scriptures that he uses for foundation. His message is positive and clear – God has a purpose for all of us. That purpose is one that we are not only uniquely qualified for already, but that we are destined to succeed in since we are gifted by God. Max’s book is uplifting and positive. Unlike those infomercials he doesn’t call on us to make an investment or change, but to look at our core God given gifts and values and to use them as we were born to and meant to.

I consider this book an introduction and a place to start a search for your life’s work. It’s a book that can be read in an evening, but will spark a flame that will want the reader to look deeper to find what God wants them to be.
