James 1:6-11

6But when you ask him, be sure that your faith is in God alone. Do not waver, for a person with divided loyalty is as unsettled as a wave of the sea that is blown and tossed by the wind.

7Such people should not expect to receive anything from the Lord.

8Their loyalty is divided between God and the world, and they are unstable in everything they do.

9Believers who are poor have something to boast about, for God has honored them.

10And those who are rich should boast that God has humbled them. They will fade away like a little flower in the field.

11The hot sun rises and the grass withers; the little flower droops and falls, and its beauty fades away. In the same way, the rich will fade away with all of their achievements.
