A Daily Devotion for Friday, August 12

James 1:25

But whoever looks intently into the perfect law that gives freedom, and continues in it- not forgetting what they have heard, but doing it- they will be blessed in what they do.

Again I am struck with how these words fit humanity yesterday, today and tomorrow. I am so often inclined to hear something, be moved by it, and then to forget. This is the human condition, I suppose. It does make following Christ a challenge in the day to day of life. A life following Christ every minute, in every decision, would not be easy, but it would set us free from a lot of negativity and worry. This should not be so difficult for me to put into practice without forgetting!

Holy Lord, you live within me, always wiling to show me the way. May I never forget. Amen
