Your actions spring from what you believe

Morning: Psalm 51:1-18; Jeremiah 12:1-16; Philippians 3:1-14

Evening: Psalm 69:1-23; John 12:9-19

St. Paul tells the Philippians that [he] has discovered in Jesus what he calls righteousness through faith. In other words, good actions spring from what you believe more than from an act of the will. If you do not believe yourself valuable, you may not value others or treat them well. If you believe that you are deeply loved and that Love is the foundation of the Cosmos, your actions will almost certainly be seasoned with love. Perhaps the central human question is not, ‘What do you want?’ but, ‘What do you believe?’ Everything follows from that, for good or ill.
