FAITH THAT WORKS
“A Life Well Lived”
James 4:13-17
Introduction: We come to a passage that shows the self-sufficiency of man. Self-sufficiency is planning without God. There is nothing wrong with making plans, yet when we make plans without seeking His will, we get in trouble. We are to plan and think about what God wants as we face each day.
