Hearing and Doing

Hearing and doing equals action… 


Wouldn’t it be nice if we could just absorb information and it instantly transformed us? 


I would love to buy the CD of whatever product is selling on TV promising me incredible life changing results and just plug it into my listening device and have the words bring the transformation instantly. 


Heck, I could be healthier, wealthier, and wiser! 


But… 


Most of us know that is not how it works. 


Work is the operative word here. 


We have to provide not only the WILLINGNESS to CHANGE but also the ACTION and WORK…


Check your experience… 


“To be vital, faith must be accompanied by self-sacrifice and unselfish, constructive action.” Big Book pg 93 

Lord, let us hear and act when Your Holy Spirit and Word give us direction, AMEN. 

“So pay attention to how you hear. To those who listen to my teaching, more understanding will be given. But for those who are not listening, even what they think they understand will be taken away from them.” Luke 8:18 


Have a blessed day y’all!
