Mark 7:6-8
6 He replied, “Isaiah was right when he prophesied about you hypocrites; as it is written:
“‘These people honor me with their lips,
but their hearts are far from me.
7 They worship me in vain;
their teachings are merely human rules.’[a]
8 You have let go of the commands of God and are holding on to human traditions.”
Have we substituted tradition for true obedience? Lord Allow me to see the practices and things that I do today as obligations that I am bound to or true devotional spiritual expectations.
Keep me safe today Lord and let the words that come out of my mouth be acceptable and meaningful.
Be blessed today and be a blessing to someone. I have joy in my heart. I love you.
My heartfelt desire is to be true and sincere. To love God and to love my fellow man. To show my angst and happiness through words and deeds.
