ONLY FRESH WATER!
James 3:10-12 – Devotional
James 3:10-12
“Out of the same mouth proceed blessing and cursing. My brethren, these things ought not to be so. Does a spring send forth fresh water and bitter from the same opening? Can a fig tree, my brethren, bear olives, or a grapevine bear figs? Thus no spring yields both salt water and fresh.“
“Is that milk fresh?” Many times have we heard that question being asked and quite often it is followed by someone taking a sip of the milk that is in question. The response provides the answer: “Yuck!” Means it is sour and a smile indicates that it is fresh.
I often wonder about the freshness of our life? When people spend time around us are they prone to feel that same expression, yuck! I hope there’s a smile on their face such as follows a satisfying swig of sweet fresh milk!
We are told that when we are born again we are new creatures. The problem is all too often people do not live like new creatures but continue with habits and associations of the past. Like James says in today’s Scripture; “… these things ought not to be so.”
It is time to evaluate our spiritual life and determine whether it is fresh or sour.
Blessings dear hearts! Walk with God today and be a blessing!
