Faith Without Works Is Dead
Faith, if it has no works, is dead in itself.
How wide is the gap between what I believe is right and how I actually live?
📝Reflection
James is the man who stirred a long debate over faith and works, but his core is simple: living faith always shows itself in hand and foot. The Greek nekra means corpse. A conviction without deeds may seem to breathe, but it is a dead body. I have often said I believed in good values while failing to move by them. Whether faith is real shows, in the moment of crisis, in where the hand goes.
🌱Apply It Today
Take one value you say you cherish, and prove it today with one small deed.
