“You talk about your faith,” he said, “I’ll just DO IT!” James, all work plus faith, is one of the most interesting Biblical characters who creates much curiosity in me. The half brother of Jesus, he really didn’t get it until Jesus rose and ascended into heaven. He lays out a map of how to negotiate through the “Testing Faith” of life – be joyful about it, check out all the gifts you are given through it, and ASK for wisdom which God promises to give to us liberally so we can get through it. He basically tells you how to do it right and how you’re doing it wrong – Faith without works is so dead. More than that, while you’re doing those works, watch your tongue! Resist the devil. Humble yourself. Submit to God. Just do it! In due time He will lift you up.
