Consider it pure joy, my brothers and sisters, whenever you face trials of many kinds, because you know taht the testing of your faith produces prerserverance. Let perseverance finish its work so that you may be mature and complete. Not lacking anything, if you any of you lacks wisdom, you should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to you. but when you ask you must believe and not doubt, because the one who douubts is like a wave of the sea, blown and tossed by the wind.
