Actions speak louder than words.

The 8th Sunday after Pentecost

Don’t trust the lies of people who say, “This is the Temple of the Lord. This is the Temple of the Lord. This is the Temple of the Lord!” You must change your lives and do what is right. Be fair to each other. ~ Jeremiah 7:4-5 (NCV)

For the Kingdom of God is not just a lot of talk; it is living by God’s power. ~ 1 Corinthians 4:20 (NLT)

KEY IDEA:
Actions speak louder than words.
PRAYER:
Lord, thank you for your consistency. Your actions and your words line up perfectly. That's not true for me. I talk in such a way to make things sound like I'm better than I am. Lot's of us come to believe our own deceptions. We've come to think that because we say something it must be true. Clear our heads and help us to get back on track. We need to have more godly action and fewer God words. Amen.
