Do It!

"Therefore, putting aside all filthiness and all that remains of wickedness, in humility receive the word implanted, which is able to save your souls.  But prove yourselves doers of the word, and not merely hearers who delude themselves." -James 1:21-22 (NASB)
There have been times when I finish giving directions to my students and a hand goes up to ask what we are doing!  Even if it seems everyone is listening and even if the directions are written down, the words don't translate to action.  Even though God has written down His Word in the Bible and on our hearts and speaks to us, there are times we don't act!

We should take time to truly read and understand God's Word.  We should reflect on what He has written on our hearts and we should stop and listen when He responds to our prayers and speaks to us.  After we have listened and understand, then we must act!  It is through acting on God's Word that we can spread His love and help others experience His love, glory, forgiveness, and compassion.  We can put aside what is evil and commit ourselves to doing good!

Don't be passive hearers, be active doers!

Prayer:
Dear God-
Thank You for loving me and giving me Your Word.  Help me to do more than just listen or hear it.  Help me to put the words into action!  Through Jesus I pray, amen.
