Beyond Words
Jesus tells a parable about two sons. One was rebellious. Rejecting his father’s request to work in the field, he refused to go. He was just being open and honest about his feelings.
But seeing the sadness in his father’s eyes, he was moved deep within. He changed his mind and took to the field.
The other son was dutiful. But his obedience was empty. He simply payed lip-service because he was afraid to offend his dad. But he never showed up for work.
Good intentions are not enough. Promises are meaningless unless they are performed. We are to love beyond words. Our deeds reveal our creed! 😊
