James 1:2-6

Christian Standard Bible

Trials and Maturity

² Consider it a great joy, my brothers and sisters, whenever you experience various trials,^{(A) 3} because you know that the testing of your faith produces endurance. ⁴ And let endurance have its full effect, so that you may be mature and complete, lacking nothing.

⁵ Now if any of you lacks wisdom, he should ask God—who gives to all generously and ungrudgingly—and it will be given to him.^{(B) 6} But let him ask in faith without doubting.^[a] For the doubter is like the surging sea, driven and tossed by the wind.
