If any of you lacks wisdom, you should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault.

James 1:5

Today's reading invites a slower and more attentive kind of faith. If any of you lacks wisdom, you should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault.

God is not irritated by sincere requests for wisdom; he welcomes them. Wisdom begins when we admit our need instead of disguising it.

This verse encourages an open-handed dependence on God's counsel. Return to this passage tonight and notice what it says differently after a full day.
