THIS EPISODE:Patience and endurance—two key words in today’s text that we will spend a few minutes exploring as we hear James speaking affectionately to his fellow believers, offering hope and encouragement in their suffering. He reminds them that their God is faithful, they are not forgotten and he will deliver them. What’s the secret to facing the hardest of times with patience and endurance? It’s embracing the deep truth that God is, in fact, actively producing a harvest in our lives, even in the middle of the mess. It’s knowing that He’s actually working in our waiting, even when we can’t understand how.There can be no perseverance without trials—no victories without battles and no peaks without valleys. Let's unpack this and more in today's message…___PRIMARY TEXT:—James 5: 7-11 (CSB)—Waiting for the Lord7 Therefore, brothers and sisters, be patient until the Lord’s coming. See how the farmer waits for the precious fruit of the earth and is patient with it until it receives the early and the late rains.
