Grace and peace to you from our Lord Jesus Christ.
James is big on acting out faith. In this brief passage he mentions time and again how important it is to not just hear the words, but to also go out and do what the words say. To be sure, faith is a good starting point. We have to believe in Christ, and in what the Scriptures say, but once we believe we must go out and act according to our faith. We should, as James says, go out and care for the widows and orphans in their distress. But we should not stop there. We should also care for the homeless and the hungry, for the abused and neglected, for anyone who is in need. Faith is not just about belief, it is about action. Go forth and do the work your faith calls you to do. God bless you,
Pastor Josh
