TODAY’S READING: James 2:14-26
 
“What good is it, my brothers, if a man claims to have faith but has no deeds….Show me your faith without deeds, and I will show you my faith by what I do.” (James 14, 18)
 
Do you ever wish the world around you could see the genuine commitment of your inner heart to God?
 
Do you wish those around you could see the intent of your heart?
 
I do!
 
But alas!  All that the world really knows of us and our claim to faith is what they see!
 
Does the world see you impatient and critical in the grocery store, hostile or unapproachable during a challenging time on the job or in an office situation, pouting when you don’t get your way, and downright unreasonable or oblivious to others on the highways and the city streets – just to name a few?
 
The lost people around you will never really hear the Good News of Christ when you tell them, unless your life, your actions and your responses clearly show that
knowing Jesus does, indeed, make a difference.
 
Dear “servant of God” will you remember your words are usually superseded by you actions. Now go out into your day and by your words and actions show people Jesus.
