James 1:18-20

New Century Version

¹⁸ God decided to give us life through the word of truth so we might be the most important of all the things he made.

Listening and Obeying

¹⁹ My dear brothers and sisters, always be willing to listen and slow to speak. Do not become angry easily, ²⁰ because anger will not help you live the right kind of life God wants.
