Thoughts on Today's Verse

"Religion that God our Father accepts as pure and faultless is this: to look after orphans and widows in their distress and to keep oneself from being polluted by the world." James 1:27

Thoughts on Today's Verse by Phil Ware
We have been reminded by James of how important our "talk" is, and now he reminds us about the importance of our walk. True religion is not all talk. We must live and love as Christ did. Caring for widows, orphans, and others who are forgotten and overlooked while we are keeping ourselves holy to God is what "Christ living" is all about.
My Prayer...
Precious and Loving God, give me eyes to see the people that need your blessing. Please lead me to the folks in our church, our neighborhood, and our work or school that feel forgotten and overlooked. Help me to not only see them, but to include them so they can know the love that you have for them!
In Jesus' name I pray. Amen.
