Neglecte & Deeds

I seem to have neglected this for some time, like so many things we start with enthusiasm - then they take a meandering walk to the back of our minds, and fall into some convenient hole.

Faith can be like that so often, unless we ask God to keep his Holy Spirit living in our hearts, keep feeding from the scriptures, worshipping and praying - even when we feel grumpy and off - our faith can slip down into a crevice hidden from sight.

At cluster tonight we were talking about christian deeds in our lives, and started to trot out the lists of stuff we can do. But unless the deed comes from our heart, and not the fact we discussed and decided it was good to do, we won't hit the mark with God.
