A Daily Devotion for Friday, April 1

James 2: 14-17

What good is it, my brothers, if a man claims to have faith but has no deeds? Can such faith save him? Suppose a brother or a sister is without clothes and daily food. If one of you says to him,”Go, I wish you well; keep warm and well fed,” but does nothing about his physical needs, what good is it? In the same way, faith by itself, if it is not accompanied by action, is dead.

After this many years, my mission and ministry outside of professional work remains a mystery to me. I believe I am missing God’s voice in my life. What/where is my “action”? I long for a ministry involving more than giving money.

Holy Father, I am sorry that I am missing what you are telling me, or just not listening. Help me find ways to be generous with more than just money. Amen
