Mean what you say

Grace, mercy and peace to you.

Say, Yes

When you mean yes

Say, No

When you mean no

For everything you say

Is recorded in heaven

That you must account for

There’s no denying

The gospel  for today was about two sons who were asked by their father to do something in their vineyard.  The eldest son said, “No,”  but changed his mind later and did what his father asked him to do.  The youngest readily answered, “Yes,”  but did not do as he promised his father.

With whom are you alike, the eldest or the youngest? The eldest obeyed his father although he initially refused his command.  You should belong to that category, a changed heart and mind to follow God’s orders and setting aside previous personal plans to do what He asked you to. 

Almost all of you say, “Yes,” especially when favors you’ve recently asked for were granted, but when the fervor of being blessed have waned, you continue as before, doing your own plans and forgetting what you have promised to Me earlier.

Remember, I hold you accountable for your words, see to it that when the time comes, you can account for everything that you did with My time that I loaned to you.
