James 2:20-24

"By their fruit you will recognize them..."
-matthew 7:16
This passage came to mind when i read for today.
Its so true. You can tell that those who do good, do it for the love they have for Christ. Its out of nothing but pure thanks and praise that they do what they do....and without even knowing it sometimes!
I dont think its any "amount" that shows one faith that is stronger than another. All God wants is a willing heart! Its not like our actions are, or ever could be sufficient enough for God. In fact it angers God when we do "good" simply for our own salvation and not out of a heart of faith. He just wants our hearts. When we have true faith in our hearts (given by God) we just cant help showing it!
