Key Application:
Because we are His, strive for the perfection He modeled acknowledging our lack and need, trusting His completing work.
Key Verse:
James 1:2-4 “Count it all joy, my brothers, when you meet trials of various kinds, for you know that the testing of your faith produces steadfastness. And let steadfastness have its full effect, that you may be perfect and complete, lacking in nothing.”

2. Write down in a journal three areas you feel you are “lacking” in your faith or in your maturity in Jesus.
3. Are you prepared for the irritants that God often uses to complete the good work in us?

Church family, we praise God for how faithfully in so many respects you give. Our church family is undeniably generous, but we still have great needs for supplication. We ask that you give joyfully, faithfully and sacrificially in response to how our great God and Savior has given to us.
