—James 5:1-11
by: Jasmine Lynch.
“Therefore, be patient brethren, until the coming of the Lord” (v.7a, NKJV). James exhorted us to be patient as we obsderve the injustice of the rich. Sometimes it seems that they are getting away with evil as they fill their coffers while oppressing the poor and murdering the just. This is a timely message. Today, some are walking away from their faith and church, giving up on politics, refusing even to vote. Life seems so unfair, but James reminds us to “Establish your hearts, for the coming of the Lord is at hand” (v.8, NKJV). What was happening then is happening now. But we are that much closer to the end. Continue patiently in your faith.
