Yep, I’m series. My leg collapsed under me and as I was going down, I jammed my toes, banged up my knee and just rolled into the pool in serious pain. It’s improving slowly but I’m still using two canes to get around. I’ve had weakness in my right leg since 2008 when I re-injured my back and it gets a bit wobbly at times even without any added booze. ;)
Because of his arthritis, Roger could no longer handle the winters of Illinois, so he moved to tropical Bangkok, Thailand. One day he remembered his grandmothers favorite song, What You Are: What you are speaks so loud that the world cant hear what you say; theyre looking at your walk, not listening to your talk; theyre judging from your actions every day.
This song prompted Roger to feed the homeless who stayed along a half-mile stretch of road. Every morning, he served hot food to more than 45 families. Years later, one of the homeless women came to know Jesus as Savior and sought out Roger to thank him for introducing her to the love of Christ.
In James, we are clearly told that faith without works is dead (2:17). It does not mean that works will result in faith, but that good works will affirm that our faith is real. It is easy to say we believe in God, but only our works can prove the truthfulness of our words. Abraham was an example of this. He didnt just talk about his faith; he demonstrated it by his willingness to give up his only son in obedience to God (James 2:21-24; see Gen. 22:1-18). And Isaac was spared.
Today, how can we actively demonstrate our love for God and trust in Him?
Read: James 2:14-26
That is not good my FRiend. I shall pray that the Lord gives you increased strength in that leg. I pray that your fall is a blessing in disguise and that it jarred loose the nerve in your back that has caused you problems before. My Lord says that when you want something, be specific. In His name it is done.
