lack of wisdom
(James 1:2-12)
(…) We all face difficult times, but we must overcome hardships by thinking deeper, thinking about love, and thinking about giving and receiving. (…) How to win is also important. It is wisdom to solve these problems. We can become winners in life when we live wisely in the hardships that constantly come to us. So, in the text, “My brethren, count it all joy when you meet various trials. For ye know that the trial of your faith produces perseverance, and perseverance will be perfected.” You must have wisdom when you are tired and tired.
We must have faith (verses 2-4).
Faith renews hope.(…) We must have faith in God. It is said that there are 3,250 kinds of God's promises in the Bible. But the trial of faith makes us perfect and without need. If you lack wisdom, trust God.
We must be content.
(…) The Apostle Paul said, “I have learned to be content” (Philippians 4:11), and said, “If there is contentment, there is gain in godliness” (1 Timothy 6:6). If we learn to know, we will be happy in the peace that God gives us. You will be the light of the world. Today, the financial crisis that started in the United States has spread all over the world. The world is tense. (…) As we, as Christians, thank God and shed light of contentment, the seething economic turmoil will subside.(…)
We need cooperation.
The church wants to reach out to non-believers through services such as Wednesday evangelism group, side dish service for senior citizens living alone, senior college, after-school classes, and daycare centers. Still, our cooperation is lacking.(…) I wish each of you to belong wherever you are, and I wish you to deepen each other while serving and sharing. It's not forced, it's not a reward, but if you participate, the Lord gives you more grace. We can do good only by working together. Working together is wisdom.(…)
You must have courage.
Now the whole world is going through labor and trials. We must know that those who survive here have the courage to challenge (…) We must have courage. We must have the courage to stand up for our beliefs. It takes courage to face all the sorrows of life with boldness. It takes courage to make the necessary sacrifices willingly. And we need the courage of dedication. All of these fill the lack of wisdom and become the key to victory. (…) God wants to use us. If you lack wisdom, commit yourself. Amen.
