How and why we do things mean more than the things we do.

Who is Right

Someone can look right, talk right and act right but only God can tell you if he/she is right.

Read: I Samuel 16:7

7 But the Lord said to Samuel, “Don’t judge by his appearance or
height, for I have rejected him. The Lord doesn’t see things the
way you see them. People judge by outward appearance, but the
Lord looks at the heart.”

 

Doing Something

Even Much More

Sometimes you have to give and do more – even much more – to make a bad situation good.

Read: Matthew 5:40-41

“If you are sued in court and your shirt is taken from you, give your coat, too. If a soldier demands that you carry his gear for a mile, carry it two miles.”
