Consider it a great joy, my brothers and sisters, whenever you experience various trials,  because you know that the testing of your faith produces endurance.

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.

My dear brothers and sisters, understand this: Everyone should be quick to listen, slow to speak, and slow to anger

And let endurance have its full effect, so that you may be mature and complete, lacking nothing.

But  be doers of the word and not hearers only, deceiving yourselves.

Blessed is the one who endures trials, because when he has stood the test he will receive the crown  of life that God  has promised to those who love him.

Every good and perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of lights, who does not change like shifting shadows.

Because if anyone is a hearer of the word and not a doer, he is like someone looking at his own face  in a mirror. For he looks at himself, goes away, and immediately forgets what kind of person he was.

Pure and undefiled religion before God the Father is this: to look after orphans and widows  in their distress and to keep oneself unstained from the world.

No one undergoing a trial should say, “I am being tempted by God,” since God is not tempted by evil, and he himself doesn’t tempt anyone. But each person is tempted when he is drawn away and enticed by his own evil desire.

Let the brother of humble circumstances boast in his exaltation
