Worship into the Week-
James 2
The Sin of Partiality
8 If you really fulfill the royal law according to the Scripture,
“You shall love your neighbor as yourself,”
you are doing well.
Faith Without Works is Dead
18 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.
In this week leading up to the Anniversary of 9-11,
I was spending time with these verses.
When lectionary readings fit time and space
of current events, it is always time to sit and see for a bit.
How we see our neighbors-
to love them as ourselves.
Works must follow faith.
It is time to set aside the things that separate us.
These 20 years- what have we learned?
We need the Lord's help- still.
To learn to love our neighbors as ourselves.
Lord, have mercy.
Lord, have mercy.
Change our hearts.
Let my faith be shown in my works.
Amen.
