What do you do while you’re waiting on God?

In James Week 7, Pastor Aaron walks through James 4–5 to uncover a counter-cultural wisdom for planning, handling wealth, and waiting on the Lord. James confronts arrogant assumptions about tomorrow, exposes the danger of wealth without surrender, and reminds us that our lives are like a mist—temporary, fragile, and fully dependent on God.

This message challenges us to ask:

• Are my plans shaped by God’s will—or my own gain?
• Am I storing up treasures on earth or in heaven?
• Am I waiting with patience—or anxiety?

James doesn’t condemn planning or wealth—he confronts pride, arrogance, and misplaced security. Instead of self-sufficiency, we are called to humility. Instead of hoarding, generosity. Instead of panic about the future, patient trust in the Lord’s coming.

Because real wisdom isn’t just about making plans—it’s about surrendering them.
