James 1

Today, father, I bend down and look into your perfect law of liberty. By your grace and through the witness of your Holy Spirit, I see Jesus, your Messiah and my Lord. I feast on his word and I continue in Christ as the true law of liberty.

I let your word work in me, father. I do not forget. I am blessed in all that I do. I receive with humility and desperate need your ingrafted word, and my soul is saved.

I endure trials, and I am perfected by the things I suffer. You prove yourself to me, father, as you testify to me in trials. I am placed in Christ by your grace and filled with the gift of your Holy Spirit. He is the perfect gift from above given to me by you, the Father of Lights.

You are perfect, father, and there is no variation or shadow of turning in you. You brought me fourth by your word of truth, and now I am a kind of first fruit of your creation.
