I have been thinking about this verse:
“If any of you lacks wisdom, you should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to you.” James 1:5
Being reminded that God will give me the wisdom I need, the answers to what I’m struggling with, and all I have to do is ask Him and then trust in His power and perfectness has been helpful and reassuring. Just something to think about.
Thank you for all you do. Have a great week!
