James 1:6-8

Testing of Your Faith

⁶ But _m let him ask in faith, _n with no doubting, for the one who doubts is like _o a wave of the sea that is driven and tossed by the wind. ⁷ For that person must not suppose that he will receive anything from the Lord; ⁸ _p he is a double-minded man, _q unstable in all his ways.
