Scripture from my Beth Moore study of James

James 1:1-4 James, a servant of God and of the Lord Jesus Christ, To the twelve tribes scattered among the nations greetings;   Consider is pure joy, my brothers and sisters, whenever you face trails of many kinds, because you know that the testing of your faith produces perseverance. Let perseverance finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything.       I love this verse and have to remind myself reflect upon a lot!!!
