Matthew 15:8 NASB "This people honors Me with their lips, But their heart is far away from Me."No sooner had he turned his back, when some of the guys began to ridicule him! Today's verse shares about honoring others, especially God and how lip service just doesn't cut it! After the foreman laid out the plans for the day, some of the men began to mock him and laugh at him as he walked away. They didn't do it to his face but did it when he turned and walked away. I can say that I love my wife but if my actions don't show that, or I talk about her behind her back, where is my heart when it comes to loving and honoring her. Or how about the group of men we call friends, do we wait till they leave then make fun of them. Or how about our children, or our boss and co-workers! When our hearts are in it, we can honor others and God with the right attitude, the right actions. So I guess the question for today is... where is our heart? And how is our honor? Is it just lip service? peace, tom
