What Your Works Say

What do your works, the things you do, say about what you believe?
Our actions speak louder than our words.
A sermon is better seen and received when it is lived out, rather than simply spoken.
Our works speak volumes about what we believe. Our faith is communicated through our actions and the way we live out our lives.
The Book of James tells us, “Faith by itself, if it does not have works, is dead. But someone will say, ‘You have faith and I have works.’ Show me your faith apart from your works, and I will show you my faith by my works.” (James 2:17-18, ESV).
So, what do your works say about what you believe? How are your beliefs being applied through your decisions and actions?
May we live out our faith through our works so that all may know what we believe through how we do our works in the world.
In Christ alone, Robbie
A Prayer For Those Who Serve Others: “O Lord our heavenly Father, whose blessed Son came not to be served, but to serve: We ask you to bless all who, following in his steps, give themselves to the service of others; endue them with wisdom, patience, and courage, that they may strengthen the weak and raise up those who fall, and, being inspired by your love, may worthily minister to the suffering, the friendless, and the needy; for the sake of him who laid down his life for us, your Son our Savior Jesus Christ. Amen.” (#45, Book of Common Prayer, 2019).
