Trinity Rescue Mission

James 2: 14-17 14What good is it, my brothers, if a man claims to have faith but has no deeds? Can such faith save him? 15Suppose a brother or sister is without clothes and daily food. 16If 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? 17In the same way, faith by itself, if it is not accompanied by action, is dead.

We are going to Trinity Rescue Mission this Saturday from 11-1pm. Resolution is going to be cooking food and playing music for women, children and men. Afterward we are going to eat lunch and then have a sports day at UNF. Sports days consists of tennis, volleyball, soccer, basketball, football, softball, and ultimate frisbee. Even if you are a sports hater you can come and cheer my teams on in every sport. Invite your friends! This is something you and they do not want to miss. See ya'll There!

Thoughts about James 2
A lot of people will read this passage of scripture and think that they have to do something in order to please God and go to heaven. I believe they are right. If a person does not change his actions after he has met God his faith is dead. We are new creations in Christ Jesus. One may ask, "Well what about the worksman mentality?" The problem does not lie in how a person is trying to please God. It lies in the motive. One should ask himself or herself, "Do I do good works because I feel guilty? Or because it makes me feel like God loves me more when I do them? Or because God will bless me more if I do them? Or it makes me feel more socially responsible? Or it helps my business with it's public image?" God is all about relationship. James 2:26 states that faith without works is like the body without the spirit. It is like a corpse. God does not want us to have a dead Faith; He has called us to have living Faith. In other words, he wants a living relationship. Therefore, through relational interaction between one and God there will come the desire to please Him. It is because I read my Bible this morning and heard his voice that I want to tell others about Him. It is because I worshiped last night and His love poored inside of me that I want to feed the poor on Saturday morning. Because I met the person of Jesus and have know how wonderful He is, I want to meet with Him every day. A person should not strive to good works to feel good about himself. Instead, he or she should seek to please a God that they have met-a God that they are amazed at and are passionately in love with. So go out and feed the homeless and witness to your friends and read your Bible. And do it for your relationship with God, not to become a better religious person.
