James 1:1-9
James 1:1-9 (CSB) 1 James, a servant of God and of the Lord Jesus Christ: To the twelve tribes dispersed abroad.Greetings. 2 Consider it a great joy, my brothers and sisters, whenever you experience various trials, 3 because you know that the testing of your faith produces endurance. 4 And let endurance have its full effect, so that you may be mature and complete, lacking nothing.
5 Now if any of you lacks wisdom, he should ask God-who gives to all generously and ungrudgingly-and it will be given to him. 6 But let him ask in faith without doubting. For the doubter is like the surging sea, driven and tossed by the wind. 7 That person should not expect to receive anything from the Lord, 8 being double-minded and unstable in all his ways.

Chapter one is packed with lots of important truths and application so we want to get into the first 8 verses. The subject of James 1;2-8 is how to successfully go thru the trials and tests of life.
James is a letter and like most letters it begins with a greeting.
