In the same way, faith by itself, if it is not accompanied by action, is dead. ~James 2:17

For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in, I needed clothes and you clothed me, I was sick and you looked after me, I was in prison and you came to visit me.’

“Then the righteous will answer him, ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry and feed you, or thirsty and give you something to drink? When did we see you a stranger and invite you in, or needing clothes and clothe you? When did we see you sick or in prison and go to visit you?’ “The King will reply, ‘Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me.’ ~Matthew 25: 35-40

For we are God’s handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do. ~Ephesians 2:10

Service is the beat that gets us moving. Scripture is clear: faith without action is incomplete. This week we explored compassion, kindness, and the joy of serving others as an expression of our identity in Christ. So this week your challenge is to visit your neighbor, write an encouraging note, or make a meal for someone.
