Last week we started on our journey of memorizing James 2 – say this with me:

“My brothers and sisters, believers in our glorious Lord Jesus Christ must not show favoritism.”

And now we add:

“Suppose a man comes into your meeting wearing a gold ring and fine clothes and a poor man in filthy old clothes also comes in.”

I love it when God uses examples in the Bible that could easily happen today.  I’m visualizing us meeting in church or meeting in our Bible study and this is happening.

It’s easy to see that God is going to talk about how we respond to people differently depending on how they look on the outside.

If our eyes are open, he will be teaching us each our own lessons on what we are memorizing as we go about our lives.  That’s how he blesses us.

Please open our eyes, LORD.
