—James 1:1-11
by: Benny Uhlich.
When we face trials, our temptation is to whine and complain or even give up. Alternatively, James suggests we should be pleased in knowing that we are being tested. When being tested, we can strengthen our perseverance, faith, and wisdom. When we lack wisdom and ask God for it with true faith and no doubt, He will surely give it to us. When we ask but still doubt God, we are fickle and will not be granted that wisdom. Our God truly cares for our well-being, that is why we need to fully trust in God when we call on Him and call on Him constantly.
