The Maze of Life - James 1:27, Matthew 22:37-39, Micah 6:8

James 1:27 

Religion that God our Father accepts as pure and faultless is this: to look after orphans and widows in their distress and to keep oneself from being polluted by the world.

Matthew 22:37-39

37 …Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.’ 38 This is the first and greatest commandment. 39 And the second is like it: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.

Micah 6:8

act justly, love mercy, and walk humbly with your God.

James 1:27 “Religion that God our Father accepts as pure and faultless is this: to look after orphans and widows in their distress and to keep oneself from being polluted by the world.”

LIFE is a MAZE

The world offers endless bunny trails: ego pursuits, money, wine, other gods, binge-watching, climbing ladders, low self-esteem, false gods, corporate ladders, apathy, binge-watching Netflix… They look exciting, but they lead nowhere — or worse.

God’s path is clear and narrow:

• Love the Lord your God with all your heart, soul, and mind (Matthew 22:37).

• Love your neighbor as yourself (Matthew 22:39).

• Act justly, love mercy, walk humbly with your God (Micah 6:8).

• and again… Care for the vulnerable and stay unpolluted by the world (James 1:27).

It’s not complicated — but it’s not easy. The good news? Jesus already walked the path perfectly and invites us to follow Him.
