James 1:5

The first gift of Scripture is not pressure but perspective. 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. Write the reference somewhere visible so the truth returns to you throughout the day.
