Kitchen Table Devotions
James 1
Day 14
Pure and undefiled religion in the sight of our God and Father is this: to visit orphans and widows in their distress and to keep oneself unstained by the world.
James 1:27
Pure religion comes from a pure relationship with God. No hidden sin or situations, we’ve come to trust God enough to be truthful with Him. Being honest with ourselves and others begins with being honest with God. We’ve been in His word and let His word be the mirror to our spirit and soul. A pure heart makes for a pure head with pure hands. Our minds and motives become pure, with no second guessing or paranoid thinking, we are loved by God and given life from God. By choice, we can live clean and clear of guilt, shame, man-made religion and expectations. Pure religion flows from a pure relationship with God. Don’t be afraid to be authentic.
