A treasure trove of the sometimes logical and sometimes mindless ramblings of a woman in the throws of motherhood.

weekend Wisdom...

"2Consider it pure joy, my brothers, whenever you face trials of many kinds, 3because you know that the testing of your faith develops perseverance. 4Perseverance must finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything. James 1:2-4"

I remember watching pastor Assembly of God pastor in Little Rock present this passage on TV when I was at Harding. I remember him joking, "If God gave you the permission to white-out just ONE passage in the Bible, don't you think this would be it?" Sorta funny ;)

When I get contemplative, it kinda makes me wonder what it is about perseverance that makes it so essential for members of God's Kingdom. Like, we need to get toughened up a little here for something big on the other side.

Good passage :)
