Doing It Wisely


The WORD today (see http://usccb.org/bible/readings/120513.cfm) teaches us how to be wise doers.

We need to act to get things done. We won’t lose weight if we are u willing to sweat it out. Things can't get done without us working for it. Planning is good, but not enough to complete a task.

The gospel tells us that we will not be saved and be in heaven just by mere words. We need to act.

Jesus said to his disciples:
“Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the Kingdom of heaven, but only the one who does the will of my Father in heaven”.

And he further tells us that acting upon his word is the right, the wise decision. In the sense of the world, it is like a sure investment, that you will surely, eventually reap the rewards.

May we be reminded to act, and to do so according to his will.

Father God,
Thank you for today. Thank you for another day to live for you. Thank you for another day to act for you. Lord, may I always have the desire to live for you. May it always be in my heart. Amen.

Blessed day!

In Christ,
