Today's Devotion: James 4:8 (New International Version)
Come near to God and he will come near to you. Wash your hands, you sinners, and purify your hearts, you double-minded.


The point of this devotion is that we take the time to do a lot of things in our life, but we don't take the same time to give to God. I know a lot of people who call themselves Christians, but they often don't take the time to go to church to worship God.


The theme of James is "faith that works." If we focus on our faith, we will find that faith will generate good works in our life and in the lives of others.


Today's Comments:
Tonight, we hosted Evensong and a barbecue for the other churches in our deanery. We had approximately ten people show up from two different churches. But they showed up for dinner, not for the worship. What does that say?
