Living Inconsistently From Sunday To Monday - James 1: 22-25
The Christian life is no easy task
it requires you to be considered last
to give yourself to serve others
moving on forward forget the past
When one comes to know Christ
life changes in so many ways
one wants to worship the living God
listening much to what God says
God's purpose in His word preached
is always for people to change
never is His will to stay the same
for those that do God thinks it strange
So what's the point of attending church
to just drive home again just the same
then to rise as you are on Monday morn
surely that can't be your lifelong aim
The world itself is lost in its sin
you don't want to be like them
aimless, powerless, and with no purpose
rather be consistent in step with His holy anthem
("But be doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving yourselves. For if anyone is a hearer of the word and not a doer, he is like a man who looks intently at his natural face in a mirror. For he looks at himself and goes away and at once forgets what he was like. But the one who looks into the perfect law, the law of liberty, and perseveres, being no hearer who forgets but a doer who acts, he will be blessed in his doing.")
James 1: 22-25
(Quote:
" Why dedicate every Sunday morning of your life to going to church to hear God's word preached only to drive home and live like the rest of the world the rest of the week" -Anon.)
