Sunday

Okay, I am going to write about our scripture reading  today, and what it means to me. (now I'm not exactly a theologian or anything, so bear with me here!)
Today we read James 2. It was about not showing partiality to the rich or the poor. One of the verses was the base for an old T.V. show that I used to like. It's called McGee and me (look it up!) On this particular episode, McGee races for the best seat at the table, only to have it  taken away from him by someone with more money. As he looks around, he sees that the only spot left, is the end seat. I always felt bad for McGee ;). James 2 talks about "dividers" between the rich and the poor. I see that in school sometimes, and it really makes me sad.
James also talks about having faith, but no works. He says that having faith, but then not doing anything along with that faith makes something useless. "Even demons believe in one God," he says. This makes me want to do things along with my faith. Verse 26 is my favorite in that passage.
I hope you kinda get what I'm saying about this...
Have a great day!
