Walk in Faithનમૂનો

TWO OARS: FAITH AND WORK

A Scottish ferryman had the word “faith” painted on one oar and the word “work” on the other. He was asked the reason for thus naming the oars, and replied by demonstrating rather than by telling. He laid the oar that had “work” painted on it in the bottom of the skiff, took the oar that had “faith” on it, and with both hands pulled with all his strength, and the boat went round and round, gradually floating down the stream with the current.  Then he placed the "faith" oar in the bottom of the skiff and took up the "work" oar with both hands and rowed, with the same result—the boat gradually floating down the stream. Then he took the "faith" oar in one hand, the "work" oar in the other, and pulled with both together. The skiff moved out of the current and across the stream.

He then explained, “One oar without the other oar will bring you nowhere. When faith and works are together, they will bring progress.”

Devotion:

Faith without works will accomplish nothing. God will do His part but we also have to do our part. Can we be faithful to do our part? When we are faithful to do our part, God will do something great in our lives. 

Faith justifies someone and our action will straighten her faith (Elisha Cloes)
