James 1:16-20

16My dear brothers and sisters, don’t be fooled.

17Every good present and every perfect gift comes from above, from the Father who made the sun, moon, and stars. The Father doesn’t change like the shifting shadows produced by the sun and the moon.

18God decided to give us life through the word of truth to make us his most important creatures.

19Remember this, my dear brothers and sisters: Everyone should be quick to listen, slow to speak, and should not get angry easily.

20An angry person doesn’t do what God approves of.
