James

Consider it pure joy, my brothers and sisters, whenever you face trials of many kinds, because
you know that the testing of your faith produces perseverance. Let perseverance finish its work
so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything. If any of you lacks wisdom, you
should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to you. But
when you ask, you must believe and not doubt, because the one who doubts is like a wave of
the sea, blown and tossed by the wind. That person should not expect to receive anything from
the Lord. Such a person is double-minded and unstable in all they do. Believers in humble
circumstances ought to take pride in their high position.
