Of his own will
begat he us
with the word of truth,
that we should be
a kind of firstfruits
of his creatures.James 1:17-27
Firstfruits — that’s part of my calling, part of my life purpose, part of my reason for being.

Let the brother of low degree rejoice
in that he is exalted.But the rich,
in that he is made low….James 1:9-16
What’s with that?
Why should a rich person rejoice at losing his riches?
Why should a well-to-do individual rejoice at becoming indigent?
Why should anyone rejoice at being humiliated?
