i was thinking about the lord's brother, james writing his letter without reminding his readers that he was the lord's half brother... instead, he referred to himself as a servant of the lord jesus christ... and he told the church that they should approach life's worst with joy...
because life's worst would develop in them perseverance, and perseverance would lead to perfection of their faith...
and if anyone of them lacked wisdom (understanding of how and why he or she should live in joy despite circumstances) then he or she should ask God for wisdom, and God would provide...
and no one should ever say, God is testing me, tempting me with this trial or that tribulation, because God is not the author of evil...
and no one should doubt or be tossed about, but should know that God gives good gifts, including the wisdom that we seek...
i was just thinking about james...
