Daily Thoughts To Think About

Finally, brothers, whatever is honorable, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is commendable, if there is any excellance, if there is anything worthy of praise, think about these things. - Philippians 4:8

Doers

Good Morning!

I could spend a month in the book of James and never get it all. But yesterday’s verse of the day was James 1:22:

“Do not merely listen to the word, and so deceive yourselves. Do what it says.” James 1:22 NIV


I am afraid the majority of the church today is stuck on listening and not motivated to doing. I don’t say this to be critical but rather to bring this to our attention. There is a big task that is before us. Society no longer considers the church as being viable. Many have been taught that those who believe in God are weaklings who have to have the pablum of religion to get through today. They don’t realize that the Christian life is just that – life!

I am a firm believer that God is a good Father who would not leave us on this earth unless we had a purpose. Each one of us who name the Name of Jesus has value for the kingdom of God. You play an important part in the spread of the Gospel and the edifying of the saints. So don’t just sit around listening … get doing, trusting that God will lead you where He wishes.

Agape’


Mr. Jim
