Here is my VOLT for James 1:5. Hope this helps you guys get started on your stuff this week!
V (Verse) - James 1:5, "But if any of you needs wisdom, you should ask God for it. He is generous to everyone and will give you wisdom without criticizing you."
O (Own Words/Interpretation) - We all need wisdom about making the right choices. Whether it's choosing between having Cheerios or Ice Cream for breakfast or choosing between lying and telling the truth. Getting wisdom from God helps us recognize what things are right and what things are wrong. God is pleased when we want this wisdom because it shows that we want to become more like him. We can approach God about anything that we are seeking answers for.
L (Live It) - A lot of times, when I am asked to do something, I jump right in and give an answer without even thinking or praying about it. I need to learn to turn to God before I make my decisions.
T (Talk to God) - God please give me the wisdom to be able to slow down before I give someone an answer to a question. I don't want to do anything without talking to You about it first. I want to make sure it is in Your will in my life before I jump in and commit to something. Please help me slow down and remember to pray first before I do anything else.
See... easy!!!
