Monday James 5:10 For examples of patience in suffering, dear brothers and sisters, look at the prophets who spoke in the name of the Lord. Tuesday James 5:11 I give great honor to those who endure under suffering. Job is an example of a man who endured patiently. From his experience I see how the Lord’s plan finally ended in good, for He is full of tenderness and mercy. Wednesday James 5:12 But most of all, my brothers and sisters, never take an oath, by heaven or earth or anything else. Just say a simple yes or no, so that you will not sin and be condemned for it. Thursday James 5:13 Are any among you suffering? They should keep on praying about it. And those who have reason to be thankful should continually sing praises to the Lord. Friday James 5:14Are any among you sick? They should call for the elders of the church and have them pray over them, anointing them with oil in the name of the Lord. Zingers from Croft M.
