Hear-ers or Do-ers?

James 2:19-26

I'm going to tell you all something that I think will shock all of you!! Haaa...ok...maybe not! Well, any the way....I joined my school's ROLLAR BLADING class!! Haaa...one of the teachers organized it....asking us if we want to learn to rollar blade and I signed up. And there were a total of 12 pax. And we have to pay for it...

Well, for those of you who really know me....I'm that type of "worker" whereby I really just work and after I complete my work, I will leave my work place as soon as possible! And usually I try not to get too involved in these activites.....so what then changed my mind???

Believe it or not....it wasn't even my colleagues who asked me about it....*i think they all know my pattern...haaaa*...I overheard them talking one day in the staff room and I even approached the person and said...."wah...can I join in??"*and for your information...i'm not the type of people who will ask..being so thick skin* And that was how I went in. All I know was that at that time, the Lord prompted me to do that....and I join with one purpose...to be more involved in my school...esp with my colleagues so that I can be a blessing to them!!

James talk about faith without deeds....and it struck me as how often times we say "Yes Lord, send me...use me..." but then we just stop there......we don't do anything else...and we get so caught up with our own life...

I will tell you the truth...it is not easy......it's tiring to put in extra effort...but it's worth it....because I'm doing it not for my own gain...but for the Lord's glory! Today was the 1st lesson, after the lesson, the Lord told me.."dellia, next week, bring 12 cans of soft drinks & offer it to your colleagues" I can't tell you how happy I felt....not just because I have to bring 12 cans of soft drinks.....but the fact that I heard the Lord's voice so clearly...what more could I ask for?

Today, will you reflect and ask yourself...do you truly want to know the will of God? Do you truly want to hear His voice? Then stay close and listen to His Heartbeart.....that as you come to Him with faith...and not just faith...but faith with deeds.....He will reveal Himself to you.
