Just Like Who?

One of our younger friends had already sat at the table earlier. He whispered, "You should ask if you can sit there first." At first, I thought, "Ask who? This is a public beach and the table isn't being used, is it?" I caught eyes with the lady lounging in the chair and inquired, "Is it okay if we sit here?" To which she replied, "Well, that is something you should have asked first. No, we are using this table and it would be polite to ask us first."
With my eyebrows raised and a nod to my companions, we removed ourselves from "their" table. I glanced over at the territorial lady lounger and read the title of her book: "Just Like Jesus" - Max Lucado.
Thank you dear, fellow beach bum and sister in Christ for being such a generous, brilliant example of what it means to be "just like Jesus".

Ouch. Makes me wonder how often I am guilty of something like that. Thanks for sharing this - good reminder for me to get my faith beyond my head (and books) and into everyday life.
