Faith + Wisdom – God’s Word Today & Thoughts to Ponder

 God’s Word Today:

James 1:2-8 NCV

My brothers and sisters, when you have many kinds of troubles, you should be full of joy, because you know that these troubles test your faith, and this will give you patience. Let your patience show itself perfectly in what you do. Then you will be perfect and complete and will have everything you need. But if any of you needs wisdom, you should ask God for it. He is generous to everyone and will give you wisdom without criticizing you. But when you ask God, you must believe and not doubt. Anyone who doubts is like a wave in the sea, blown up and down by the wind. Such doubters are thinking two different things at the same time, and they cannot decide about anything they do. They should not think they will receive anything from the Lord.

 Thoughts to Ponder:

One of the hardest thing to do is to have patience and faith in times when met with troubles upon troubles.

We often become doubtful and become weak.

Searching for immediate answers or immediate relief everyday.

Then there are days we wake up and then there’s another problem.

During these times we need to seek wisdom to see us through and build the faith.

The heavenly faith and wisdom coming from God’s throne of mercy. For in the future God has promised victory over this world.

Dear Father,

As we seek faith and wisdom, help us to draw closer to You.

No one else will see us through now and well into the future. Only you.

In Jesus Name, Amen.- See more at: http://awinaway.com/2016/09/02/faith-wisdom-gods-word-today-thoughts-to-ponder/#sthash.h7Nc86Od.dpuf
