Audio By Carbonatix

Welcome Crosswalk PLUS subscribers! These raw, uncut video takes on Scripture are brought to you ad-free from the hearts of your favorite Crosswalk contributors. We'll examine a Bible verse, application and prayer in five minutes or less as an encouraging way to start any day.

Today's verse is James 3:17 with Carol McCracken.

But the wisdom that comes from heaven is first of all pure; then peace-loving, considerate, submissive, full of mercy and good fruit, impartial and sincere.

So the next time you find yourself rehearsing the argument, writing the text, or preparing for that difficult conversation, just ask God for wisdom. Because sometimes the wisest thing we bring into a conversation isn't the perfect answer; it's the character of Christ.
