James 2:17, 21-22, 24

17 So you see, faith by itself isn’t enough. Unless it produces good deeds, it is dead and useless. 
 

21 Don’t you remember that our ancestor Abraham was shown to be right with God by his actions when he offered his son Isaac on the altar? 22 You see, his faith and his actions worked together. His actions made his faith complete.  

24 So you see, we are shown to be right with God by what we do, not by faith alone.

Do good deeds. This devotional reading makes me wonder if I do enough for others? Can they see Jesus living through me? Would I do something for a complete stranger that I would do for my own family? Most importantly, am I a good Christian example for my children to follow?


I often pray for God to open my heart and give me the courage to live and love others like Jesus loved us.
