Invest In Your Hearts

How Deep Is Your Faith?

Take the case of someone who has never done a single good act but claims that he has faith. Will that faith save him? If someone is in need of clothes and food to eat, and you say, ‘I wish you well; keep yourself warm and eat plenty,’ without giving them clothes to wear and food to eat, then what good is that? If good works do not go with it, faith is quite dead. ~ James 2:14-18

Fr Chito Dimaranan SDB reflects on investing in our hearts. James 2:14-18 clearly speaks of what faith is. Faith is no faith without good deeds.

How often have you heard someone say to you, “I’ll pray for you” at times you needed help? Is praying enough without actually helping?
