Peace Be the Journey!

The book of James has so many gems. Today I was reading and the words were coming off the page like never before. I've read them numerous times but for some reason they sunk in deeper. So many of us think or have thought that we can just get by with our faith, hopefully just enough that we can get to heaven - right? We know that we are saved by Grace - praise Jesus for that. James 2:20 "...What good is it, my brothers, if a man claims to have faith but has no deeds?...faith by itself, if it is not accompanied by action, is dead. ...do you want evidence that faith without deeds is useless? ...Abraham was considered righteous for what he did when he offered his son Isaac on the altar? You see that his faith and his actions were working together, and his faith was made complete by what he did."

Check it out, his faith was made complete by what he did. Oh how I desire to have this faith. Move me into action. I am stunned when I think about the transformation in my life over the past few years. I know that God has been preparing me/us for what is next in our journey. I love it when God does his work. It's not always fun at the time and we often have to go through some fire, but in the end it will always be better. Allow him to go deep inside of you - he knows what's in there anyway. I know that he has done this work in us to equip us for out next place of ministry. Praise you Lord!

Worship and Praise is one of my closest times with Jesus. He loves our praise to Him.
