The text for this week is James 1:5-11, in which James promises that God will give us wisdom when we ask in faith.
The visual theme is ‘the grass withers,’ which is how James describes the fate of the rich man.
The worship theme is the wisdom of God. Many of our favorite worship songs mention this as one aspect of God’s character.

Psalm 36:5-9 Your steadfast love, O LORD, extends to the heavens, your faithfulness to the clouds. 6Your righteousness is like the mountains of God; your judgments are like the great deep; man and beast you save, O LORD. 7How precious is your steadfast love, O God! The children of mankind take refuge in the shadow of your wings. 8They feast on the abundance of your house, and you give them drink from the river of your delights. 9For with you is the fountain of life; in your light do we see light.
Psalm 107:43 Whoever is wise, let him attend to these things; let them consider the steadfast love of the LORD.
