Reflection

James 1:5 reminds us that we don’t have to have everything figured out before we come to God. There will be seasons when we genuinely don’t know what decision to make, which direction to take, or how to handle what is happening around us. Instead of allowing uncertainty to produce fear, God invites us to bring our confusion directly to Him.
