God’s Truth for Trying Times - 9/1/20

We need God’s truth in trying times. Read the Scripture passage, think about what it is saying, then pray; by yourself or with your household. Let the Word of Christ dwell in you richly (Col. 3:16).

READ: ‬‭‭James‬ ‭3:13‬

“Who is wise and understanding among you? By his good conduct let him show his works in the meekness of wisdom.”

(‭‭James‬ ‭3:13‬)

CONSIDER: We all want to be wise and understanding, and this verse tells us that the one with is shows it by their behavior in the humility of wisdom. Wow. How good is God, that he would bring that about in our life. And that we would just be pleased to enjoy the beauty of Christ and his glory as he works in and through us.

THINK: What does this declare about God? What are God’s people being called to do? What assurance is given? How does the Word of God transform our hearts and lives and relationships?
