James 1:22 (NASB) But prove yourselves doers of the word, and not merely hearers who delude themselves.

I spend a lot of time thinking of just the right thing to say. I’ve always had a habit of rehearsing important conversations in my head beforehand (does that sound crazy? Oh well). And when I write these devotionals I spend a lot of time thinking of the right way to word something, the best way to get my ideas across.

So last night when I was supposed to be writing my devotional for the day, I was asking God for something to say, and you know what? He didn’t give me anything to say. Instead He told me something I needed to do. So I stopped trying to write and started figuring out what I needed to do.

Lord, thank you for the reminder that if my actions don’t back up my words, then my words are not worth reading!

-Kevi
