To listen well is a life skill. It is also a skill to develop with God. James teaches us how to hear God well. It is a lesson of the heart, not just our ears.
Faith That Works: James has been called the New Testament Book of Proverbs. It is a book of wisdom for Christians - wisdom that is evident in our conduct. We are reminded that wisdom is more than just what we know. Wisdom shines through our speech, works, humility, prayers and patience through troubles. So for those who need wisdom - God has an endless supply to give.
