evil desires at war within you?â€
James 4:1 NLT
TUESDAY
“You want what you don’t have, so you scheme and kill to get it. You are jealous

away from them. Yet you don’t have what you want because you don’t ask God
for it.â€
James 4:2 NLT

Come close to God, and God will come close to you. Wash your hands, you

Let there be tears for what you have done. Let there be sorrow and deep grief.
Let there be sadness instead of laughter, and gloom instead of joy. Humble
yourselves before the Lord, and he will lift you up in honor.â€
