305 | Are you trying to solve a problem? James 1:5 reminds us the answer is found by seeking God’s wisdom.

Are you rolling a problem over in your mind looking for a solution?

 

James 1:5 reminds us instead of thinking so hard, we can take our unsolved problems to God.

 

James 1:5 (NIV)

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.
