Love in Action

But what do you think? A man had two sons, and he came to the first and said, "Son, go work today in the vineyard." And he answered, "I will not"; but afterward he regretted it and went. The man came to the second and said the same thing; and he answered, "I will, sir"; but he did not go. Which of the two did the will of his father? They said, "The first."
—Jesus Christ in Matthew 21:28-31a


When its all said and done, more will be said than done.
—Anonymous


Promises can never take the place of performance. Fine words are never a substitute for fine deeds. Let's be a people of fine words and fine deeds
—William Barclay


Let’s not talk about love. Let’s not sing about love. Let’s put love into action and make it real.
—Clarence Jordan in the Cotton Patch Gospel version of I John
