Okay, its now my turn to share. I’ve picked a quiet time topic which is, “How important is acting the Word of God?”
An example given in the material is that two families got saved almost at the same time. But as time goes by, one family grew spiritually and was blessed richly but the other family always seemed one step behind. Both families attend the same church, hear the same preaching and even sat in the same choir. But the only difference is one just hear the Word and the other hear and acted on it. So conclusion is that its not enough for us to study God’s Word alone. We have to take a step further- become doers of the Word.
“Don’t fool yourself into thinking that you are a listener when you are anything but, letting the Word go in one ear and out the other. Act on what you hear! Those who hear and don’t act are like those who glance in the mirror, walk away, and two minutes later have no idea who they are, what they look like” –James 1:22-24
And this reminded me of another passage in the bible, from Mark 4:1-20 (Parable of Sower) I guess many of you know the story, so I don’t have to explain much. Just do read up when you have the time. Yea, and I hope that our CG will not only listen but also act on His Word and grow spiritually together. Be like seeds that fall on good soil and multiply richly(:
