Subject: Embracing Faith in Action (04/24/'24) -Message

Subject: Embracing Faith in Action Dear Friends, I hope this message finds you well and filled with the grace of God. As we navigate our journey of faith, I wanted to share a reflection with you on the profound connection between our beliefs and our actions. It's often said that trust is built through changed behavior, and I couldn't agree more. Our faith in Christ not only opens our hearts but also guides our hands and feet towards acts of kindness and compassion. In our walk with God, it's crucial to pay more attention to what we do than what we say or think. It's through our actions that we truly reflect the love and teachings of Christ. Have you ever paused to observe how the Holy Spirit works within us, transforming our habits and guiding us towards righteousness? Let us not be motivated solely by fear of punishment or hope of reward. Instead, let our faith be a beacon of light, guiding us through the realities of life with courage and compassion. As we journey together, let's remember the powerful words of Matthew 25:34-40, where Jesus reminds us that our actions towards others are a direct reflection of our devotion to Him. May we continue to embrace faith in action, spreading love and kindness wherever we go. Blessings to you all, Pastor Steven G. Lee (April 24, 2024)
