Daily Bible Verse and Devotion – James 1:5

Seeking GOd

If any of you lacks wisdom, you should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to you. – James 1:5 (NIV)

Do you wish that you could magically see into the future? Do you wish that you knew what person to date, or what college you should go to? Sometimes, it would be nice to just know exactly what to do and what the future holds.

Today’s Bible verse gives us some insight into what we can do when we lack wisdom and don’t know what to do. The verse tells us to ask God for help. The great news about asking for God’s help is that He gives it freely, with no strings attached.
