Thoughts on Today's Verse.... Most of us try to live by the old proverb: "The proof of the pudding is in the eating." Well, the proof of biblical wisdom and understanding is in the living. Knowing the truth doesn't mean much; living the truth is everything. Jesus said that knowing the truth and not living it makes us foolish and brings destruction on ourselves and our efforts (Matthew 7:21-27). No wonder that James, Jesus' brother, made Jesus' point very clear: we must obey what we know to be the truth, or we deceive and destroy ourselves!
