Faith Without Actions
HEART //
Let’s imagine we have a friend who calls himself a musician. He is constantly talking about music. He goes to concerts almost every week and frequently reads magazines and articles explaining how to be a great musician. But, even after years of knowing him, we’d never actually seen him play an instrument. In fact, we may really start questioning if he is a musician at all. Though he knows all about music and enjoys listening to other people play, he wouldn’t really be defined as a musician because he does not play an instrument himself.
This is the trap that many of us fall into as we call ourselves Christ's followers. We are constantly learning more about God by going to church, listening to sermons, and reading our Bibles. But if we never actually do what Jesus did, then how will people know that we are actually his followers? In order to live on a mission for our Lord, we have to get past mere talk and knowledge and be moved to action. We cannot say we love the lost or we care for the poor but then continue to do nothing about it.
WORK //
This week, we encourage you to put your faith into action by empathizing with the poor and speaking up on their behalf. Being an advocate for those in need is a great way to show compassion. Get a sandbag at your local hardware store or a large bag of beans or rice from a grocery warehouse. Carry it with you on your shoulder wherever you go, maybe for a day or the whole week. This will give you a great opportunity to be a voice on their behalf when others ask what you are doing. If needed, carry something like a bag of rice in your bag, and let the extra weight be a reminder to you... Many children in developing nations spend hours each day walking to get food or water and miss out on the opportunity to go to school. As you do this, think about what it would be like to spend each day walking miles carrying food or water just to be able to survive.

Through true stories, honest questions, and daily empathy challenges, you will grow in compassion and in your knowledge of social justice issues.
