James 1:2–8

2 “My broth­ers and sis­ters, when­ever you face tri­als of any kind, con­sider it noth­ing but joy, 3 because you know that the test­ing of your faith pro­duces endurance; 4 and let endurance have its full effect, so that you may be mature and com­plete, lack­ing in nothing.”

5“If any of you is lack­ing in wis­dom, ask God, who gives to all gen­er­ously and ungrudg­ingly, and it will be given you. 6 But ask in faith, never doubt­ing, for the one who doubts is like a wave of the sea, dri­ven and tossed by the wind; 7, 8 for the doubter, being double-minded and unsta­ble in every way, must not expect to receive any­thing from the Lord.”
