Did You Say Something? (I wasn't listening)

S - So they come to you as people do, they sit before you as My people, and they hear your words, but they do not do them; for with their mouth they show much love, but their hearts pursue their own gain.  Ezekiel 33:31

O - James referred to this; so did Jesus. It's good to show much love, but essential to live that out. Hearts are trouble, especially when fixated on personal gain.

A - It's important to not live a double life, like Crystal says "talk the talk and walk the walk". And it is important to guard my heart, not letting it be focused on personal gain. This is not about me, it's about The Lord and the Kingdom. I'm glad to start the practice of giving away more. It is a sacrifice, but good training.

P - Father, help me to follow you with all my heart, not just all my words. And may the words of my mouth, and the meditation of my heart, be acceptable in Your sight!
