Showing up is only the first step

A demonstration of selfishness as an expression of devotion to God is illustrated in Step 2 of “Get Real” from Isaiah 58:3-5. It comes from a complaining, prideful people who EXPECT blessings from God on the basis of performing religious acts. Like a stage actor, they expect to be rewarded for performing, or like an employee who expects a raise just because he/she simply shows up. Showing up is only a first step.
