Unwavering FaithJames 1:2-6 Count it as joy when you resist temptation, As a test of your faith is only flirtation; Let patience have its way as you travel, For seeing the truth as mysteries unravel; Lacking the wisdom is merely an excuse, For being lazy with no desire to produce; God is available for those who truly desire, For overcoming obstacles that you require; God is not a Father to scold when you ask, In prayer of an obstacle blocking your task. There are many temptations that we face, With strong faith, we stay in God's grace; With an unwavering faith be able to resist, Each temptation confronted as to persist; But we can not do it alone for we are weak, The reason why it is God's help we seek; With the unwavering faith also has a trust, Relying on God more, easier to resist lust; When enduring temptation God will bless, Filling you with His love replacing stress.
