📜 TODAY'S SCRIPTURE:
JAMES 1:12-15 - Blessed is the man who remains steadfast under trial, for when he has stood the test he will receive the crown of life, which God has promised to those who love him. 13 Let no one say when he is tempted, “I am being tempted by God,” for God cannot be tempted with evil, and he himself tempts no one. 14 But each person is tempted when he is lured and enticed by his own desire. 15 Then desire when it has conceived gives birth to sin, and sin when it is fully grown brings forth death.

| 0:00.0 | Well, here we are once again, friends, for the Morning Mindset Edition. I am Carrie Green, and I am a fellow pilgrim with you walking this journey of faith |
| 0:15.6 | with Christ in the lead. It's my desire to encourage you in these morning |
| 0:20.6 | mindset editions with truth from God's word to help you get your mind |
| 0:24.6 | on track for the day so that this day can be one where you live by the power of the spirit of |
| 0:30.4 | God. It's my hope that you can live a more victorious life because you've |
| 0:36.8 | been encouraged by what God has to say through his word today. And today I'm |
| 0:41.8 | going to be looking at James Chapter 1 versus 12 through 15. |
| 0:45.0 | James is a great book. I just love how practical it is and James is not afraid to just say things like they are. He's my kind of guy. I love people like that because you know what you're dealing with. You don't have to guess. They're just really clear. And James is as clear as he can be. He's looking here at verse number 12 is where I'm looking |
| 1:05.5 | rather. James 112 says, Blessed is the man who remains steadfast under trial. |
| 1:13.5 | For when he has stood the test, he will receive the crowd of life which God is promised |
| 1:18.0 | to those who love him. |
| 1:20.0 | Let no one say when he's tempted. I am being tempted by God. For God cannot be tempted with |
| 1:26.3 | evil and he himself tempts no one. But each person is tempted when he is lured and enticed by his own desire. |
| 1:36.5 | Then desire when it has conceived gives birth to sin and sin when it is fully grown brings forth death. |
| 1:44.8 | So he's talking about being steadfast under trial and in trial sometimes we are tempted in various |
| 1:52.1 | ways. |
| 1:52.6 | Maybe it's a temptation toward a wrong behavior |
| 1:55.6 | or a wrong attitude. |
| 1:56.8 | Maybe it's a temptation toward, you know, |
| 1:59.9 | short-cutting something and cheating or lying |
| 2:02.0 | or stealing or something of that nature, not being a person of integrity. |
| 2:06.0 | Because trials are hard for us to endure. |
