Morning by Morning, May 12, 2026 — “Faith Working Through Love” in Both Words and Action
Good morning, Lord Jesus. Help me hear what You’re saying to follow where You’re leading, as I begin my day in the communion of prayer with You (John 10:27). ...
As I wait for Your leading, this Word comes to mind:
“For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision nor uncircumcision counts for anything; the only thing that counts is faith working through love” (Galatians 5:6 NRSV).
“Faith working through love.”
Not just faith, but also love. Not just love, but also faith.
And not a dormant faith, a complacent faith, a passive faith, a faith we just keep to ourselves hidden away in our hearts. It’s an active faith. A “working” faith.
Our “faith working through love” is by both the Word and the Spirit, by both our words and our actions. So that whether we speak or whether act, so that when we are speaking and when we are acting, we are representing You as Your words expressed through us and Your hands reaching out through us. In this way, “we ambassadors for Christ, since God is making His appeal through us” (2 Corinthians 5:20). In this way, “as He is, so are we in this world” (1 John 4:17).
So today—and every day—put Your thoughts in my mind, Your desires in my heart, Your words in my mouth, Your movement to my actions. Where You go, I will go. What You say, I will say. What You do, I will do.
Whether in my words or my actions, let me be found faithful to be expressing and living out my “faith working through love.” As best as I can and all by the power of Your grace and Your faith at work within me. In Jesus’ name I pray. Amen.
