Life According To Jim - Lessons From Jesus' Brother, James

DAY 9 OF 14

James tells us that wisdom from God is always pure; it is peace loving and gentle, thinking of others first. This is a great test for wisdom! If you are not sure if the wisdom you’re receiving is from God, ask yourself if it aligns with this verse. God never contradicts himself.

Where in your life can you pray for wisdom and use this passage for guidance?
