[Speaker: Ps Tiana Wotherspoon] How often do we make our daily plans, set our life goals, and go about accomplishing our dreams without pausing to acknowledge God, or stopping to ask for His help or guidance? James gives us a reality check and reminds us what it means to live out our faith.

There is a better way. It is a way of wholeness and goodness and fruitfulness. It is the way of the pure, the peace-loving, the gentle, the submissive, the merciful, the unwavering and the sincere. It is the way of heavenly wisdom.

Worldly wisdom results in instability, finding disorder and every evil practice.

It is a broken wisdom of a broken system, but the good news is that there is a better way - Heavenly Wisdom.

You do not have to work for anything to receive the love and forgiveness of Christ. You can be saved by the grace of God through faith in Jesus without works. BUT, the fruit of that salvation is seen through what you do.

God is good....All the time.

Have we trivialised 'good' so much in our culture, that in times of hurt or disappointment, we struggle to believe that ‘goodness’ is a trustworthy virtue of the character of God.
