Work & Faith

[Thanks to Tenth Dot friend and previous contributor Eunice Chung for today's Tenth Dot!]

Many of us know James 2:17 well:

“Faith by itself, if it is not accompanied by action, is dead.” Using this passage as a rule of thumb, we might find ourselves trying to prove our faiths by working harder.

We might take on more ministries at church. We might make more effort to be nice to people. We might go on ministry or mission trips. We might get involved with various fellowship groups. We try our best to say “yes” when people ask us for favors.
