James 1:2-4
Consider it pure joy, my brothers and sisters,
[a] whenever you face trials of many kinds,
3 because you know that the testing of your faith produces perseverance.
4 Let perseverance finish its work so that you may be mature and complete,
not lacking anything.
Embrace pure joy
Ahoy, ahoy
God’s grace is not
Some moot decoy
But rends the dark
As we embark
And press toward
Victory’s mark
His hope,
The anchor of the soul
While waves of want
And wonder roll
Beneath the toll
Of day-to-day
That draws Time’s
Fleeting charge away
In little barges
on a sea
that pours into
eternity
