Faith TestJames 1:6-12 Make a request in faith having no doubt, Without regards what Heaven is about; For doubt is like the waves of the sea, Troubled by driving wind as you flee. Be not bothered as thoughts are stored, For you will get anything from the Lord; Even with a division within your mind, Walk in your faith as if you were blind. So even in a low position just be glad, In being lifted up rather than being sad; A wealthy man can easily be made low, Just as the flower at the end of his show. For the sun comes up in its burning heat, As grass becomes dry beneath your feet; And grace is gone from a falling flower, Pleading for a soaking summer shower. A wealthy man has nothing in his ways, As he suffers and withers in a hot blaze; A blessing to whoever undergoes a test, When God has seen you done their best.
