Faith Without Works
"But someone will say, 'You have faith, and I have works.' Show me your faith without your works, and I will show you my faith by my works. You believe that there is one God. You do well. Even the demons believe—and tremble! But do you want to know, O foolish man, that faith without works is dead?" ~ James 2:18-20
You know what I hate?
When people talk a lot.
You know what I hate even more?
When people talk a lot but don't do anything.
We murmur and complain a lot nowadays, but God asks us one simple question - "what are you doing?" What are you doing with your life? Your time? Your resources? Your talents?
It's not enough to just talk a good game. You've gotta actually put things in motion.
Faith without works is dead.
God bless,
J.W.
