Too Well-Versed?
Before the lunch hour rush at the restaurant where I waitress, I recited a memory verse to myself--(Galatians 2:20), "I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me." To my surprise, the words that came out as I greeted my first table weren't the usual "Hello, are you ready to order?" but instead, "Hello, are you ready to live?" The couple had a sense of humor and I even had the opportunity to share the verse with them.
