In the same way, the rich man will fade away even while he goes about his business. 11 For the sun rises with scorching heat and withers the plant its blossom falls and its beauty is destroyed. 10 But the one who is rich should take pride in his low position, because he will pass away like a wild flower. 9 The brother in humble circumstances ought to take pride in his high position. 7 That man should not think he will receive anything from the Lord 8 he is a double-minded man, unstable in all he does. 6 But when he asks, he must believe and not doubt, because he who doubts is like a wave of the sea, blown and tossed by the wind. 5 If any of you lacks wisdom, he should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to him.

4 Perseverance must finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything.

2 Consider it pure joy, my brothers, whenever you face trials of many kinds, 3 because you know that the testing of your faith develops perseverance. Bible Gateway James 1 :: NIV James 1 1 James, a servant of God and of the Lord Jesus Christ, To the twelve tribes scattered among the nations: Greetings.
