“What good is it, my brothers, if someone says he has faith but does not have works? Can that faith save him? If a brother or sister is poorly clothed and lacking in daily food, and one of you says to them, “Go in peace, be warmed and filled,” without giving them the things needed for the body, what good is that? So also faith by itself, if it does not have works, is dead.”
‭‭James‬ ‭2:14-17‬ ‭ESV‬‬

All,

This stands out because James says, “If a brother or sister is poorly clothed and lacking in daily food, and one of you says to them, “Go in peace, be warmed and filled,” without giving them the things needed for the body, what good is that?”  We may not see people who lack daily food, but we certainly see people who lack spiritual bread. Do we say, “Go in peace” and carry on or do we try to “feed” them?  It takes time to feed spiritually. It takes relationship. Who do you know that needs some spiritual bread now? Please pray that we and our friends are attune to our friends spiritual needs. Please pray for my friend getting a biopsy today.
