Wisdom - James1:5-8

I remember when I was young I learnt and recited the following verses from the Bible. I loved meditating the verses because I thought I was dumb I was not as clever as my classmates. I learnt to trust God that He could grant me wisdom. He would do something in my life. I would receive the blessing that He promises in His Words.

Yes, the key words here are: should ask... will be given; must believe and not doubt; a double-minded man is unstable in all he does. Read the verses. Analyze them as you read. Look for the modal verbs see if you can understand how to use the model verbs: should, will. and must.

Read and enjoy!

"5If any of you lacks wisdom, he should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to him. 6But when he asks, he must believe and not doubt, because he who doubts is like a wave of the sea, blown and tossed by the wind. 7That man should not think he will receive anything from the Lord; 8he is a double-minded man, unstable in all he does"

5 你 們 中 間 若 有 缺 少 智 慧 的 ， 應 當 求 那 厚 賜 與 眾 人 、 也 不 斥 責 人 的 神 ， 主 就 必 賜 給 他 。 6 只 要 憑 著 信 心 求 ， 一 點 不 疑 惑 ； 因 為 那 疑 惑 的 人 ， 就 像 海 中 的 波 浪 ， 被 風 吹 動 翻 騰 。 7 這 樣 的 人 不 要 想 從 主 那 裡 得 甚 麼 。 8 心 懷 二 意 的 人 ， 在 他 一 切 所 行 的 路 上 都 沒 有 定 見 。

Did God answer my prayer?
Do you think I am a teacher with wisdom?

Join me and pray to God for your wisdom! You will be blessed by His words, too.
