"Now listen, you who say, 'Today or tomorrow we will go to this or that city, spend a year there, carry on business and make money.' Why you do not even know what will happen tomorrow. What is your life? You are a mist that appears for a little while and then vanishes. Instead, you ought to say, 'If it is the Lord's will, we will live and do this or that.' As it is , you boast and brag. All such boasting is evil. Anyone, then, who knows the good he ought to do and doesn't do it , sins."
Think about this
1. There is no point in making future plans if you don't include God,
because God holds the future in His hands.
2. Remember the phrase "If it is the Lord's will," and remove any pride
3. Finally, we think that doing something wrong is sin,
but also NOT doing something can also be sin.
Sin of commission and sin of ommission.
That is how the Holy Spirit is applied to our lives.
If God has directed you to an act of kindness,
forgiveness, or service,
act upon it!
